Russian propaganda but not so bad

We should understand that this picture is an element of Russian propaganda and its expansion campaign in the Arctic (along with military drills). And you can notice that in several phrases in the film about "Shpitsbergen is a part of Russian history and science" etc.

But if we are talking about this film alone it is not so bad. If you like stories about polar expeditions with some detective line "Archipelago" may be your choice. BTW from this film I learned about the baloon expedition of Salomon Andree to the Northern Pole. Nice story.

To sum it up: it is not "The Thing" or "Terror" masterpiece but still worth watching.
