Banditskiy Peterburg: Baron (2000)
waste of time
This mini is a waste of time for anyone willing to endure through hours and hours of pointless dialogue, poor acting, a script that makes any Stallone movie seem like Sheakspeare and mis-casting. This movie at least to me smacks of "proletarschina" and it's sad to see some of very familiar faces and good actors fall so low to agree to be a part of this (Dzhigarhanyan for example, albeit he is on screen maybe for a total of 1 minute of the whole series)
The stereotypical portrayal of _every_ character in this movie is what makes me wonder - why did I even start watching it? It is unoriginal, and the worst part, it has nothing to do with what was going on in Russia at the time portrayed. For someone really bent on russian criminal genre, rent "Brigada" At least it doesn't put you to sleep like this one.
