No film can be perfect, but I don't know what's wrong with this one. It's been a long time since I've watched a movie and have not been distracted by something that was wrong with it.

I haven't seen a lot of Russian movies so I don't know if they're all that good or not.

The sound design was so well done, and in combination with the cinematography- the way the camera moved, made you feel like you were being drawn into the room. The camera movements leaned on the edge of your seat for you.

One of the best aspects was the ending, it wasn't wrapped up neatly and packaged for our pleasure. Many scenes in the film benefited from simple, subtle storytelling, instead of displaying all the gory details for the literal North American audience.

If you haven't seen a really good movie in a long time, watch this one, Andy, watch this one.
