The Russian people were trapped in the tyranny of their own history

If you care at all about the grievances of Russia circa 1940, you need to see this film, or, deem yourself a fraud.

Elizabeth and myself along with another person, lets call her Janice, went to see this film expecting some feel-good time travel flick, in Russian. Alas, we were victims of our preconception.

It was a war film. With heart ache, friendship and carnage. Epic!

I loved the parts that were seemingly not funny, and then the entirety of the Russians in the cinema started laughing. At the Russian in-joke. It was pretty bizarre.

Also, they seem to have a warped idea of rapping. And what a swastika looks like.

An otherwise awesome film.

I'd give it 3.8 Cossacks.

Well worth a look :D

Russia, a country in which things that just don't happen, happen.

So be kind gentle stranger.
Our names are Elizabeth and Isabella.

Mr. Davies is our teacher.
Perhaps "teacher" would be more suitable.
It's our favourite class,
despite the fact we suck major arse.
And our classmates are noticably hostile.
