Zvyozdniy razum (2022)
Audio post processing fail, sadly...
For some reason all of the voice tracks seem to have been re-synchronized in post- processing... the lip movements seem to be english, so i don't get it...
Other than that, this could have been quite an entertaining movie...
- the story isn't much weaker than most of the genre: 5/10
- acting a bit better than cheap sci-fi channel production: 3/10
- visual effects, staging, props very nice, actually: 8.5/10
- same for sound design (without voices): 8/10
- utter lack of understanding of basic physics and engineering: 0/10
Is this a dubbed russian version, maybe?
Anyway, just my 2 eurocents...
Big Love (2006)
religion is stranger than.... just about everything... i guess.
after watching the first season "religiously", i'm still hooked. for several reasons. one, how would anyone manage to cope and get along with three wives? two, is there any (in)sane way to explain that to your kids? three, how in the world could you keep the world from finding out? and last, how can you keep all of that organized in your head? this series actually convinced me, that it's possible. you just have to root for these guys. there's the 'normal' conservatives and the radical mormon conservatives and there's this family. them against all the rest. and it seems to work. gees, it kinda makes you jealous...

Last Exit (2006)
surprisingly fast paced
This movie actually surprised me. Multiple (well, actually just two, but who's counting?) converging threads and camera work like the "24" series combined with a realistic every-day storyline. Finally. You can actually feel the frustration in the main characters building up to right out rage. Trying to do the "right" thing, trapped in a situation they really cannot control. After endless processions of movies, where the main (supposedly intelligent) characters do the exactly wrong thing at the exactly wrong time... Someone actually had the frackin ingenious idea of showing what happens, if you're a real person in that exact situation. Why on earth did that take this long? It somehow makes you wonder, why this one never hit the box office. Maybe it's too macabre for the mainstream public.
