I love this movie. Gaidai's last work isn't his best movie but it's very, very funny comedy. It shows excellent parody on last Soviet days' - crime and kind-less everywhere, politics eat all the tastiest when simple people must cheer them or emigrate to USA.
There are many funny Gaidai's jokes - it's his style. Cast is very respectable too: Dmitri Kharatyan, Andrei Miagkov, Mikhail Kokshenov, Armen Dzhigarkhanyan, Emmanuil Vitorgan, Leonid Kuravlyov, Mintai Utepbergenov - and dead now Yuri Volyntsev, Mamuka Kikaleishvili, Nikolai Parfyonov, Spartak Mishulin and Ruslan Akhmetov. I think, Gaidai feel that this movie will be his last movie and because of this he get for his film almost all actors played in his movies.
Yes, there were some very surreal, almost fantastic, scenes (for example - maniac-policeman or bed, flying with helicopter). But what do you need? It isn't a philosophic movie, it's A COMEDY. Take it easy and enjoy watching!
