After four years living in Russia I've got courage to buy a movie in Russian and without subtitles. I think I did well. The movie is very well directed, well photographed and has an interesting plot. The actors have also first class acts. Dialogues and jokes, specially between the two main male characters, are much more sophisticated than we could expect. The scenes of Moscow during springtime are superb and life is shown as it is for a normal person. Nobody is too rich, too poor, too good, too bad, too beautiful, too ugly, and of course, nobody is too normal ! During the movie you may feel you have met those guys before. Who knows, maybe you did ! It's a pity a lot movies of the new Russian cinema are not subtitled in any language. This one surely deserves the honor.
