I wanted to watch the "Chikatilo", because the real story of the famous maniac made a lot of noise in the Soviet and post-Soviet eras. The real Andrey Chikatilo killed more than 50 people and was getting away with justice for more than 10 years...
Now all the details and facts of the investigation of that case are in our hands thanks to the director Sarik Andreasyan, who, in my opinion, shot his most interesting project in his entire career. And despite the fact that Andreasyan's filmography hasn't had dramatic crime thrillers before, he did his job perfectly.
The plot is conventionally divided into two parts. In the first one, there's an investigation by Colonel Kesaev and Captain Vitvitsky. In another one, we are introduced to Chikatilo himself. This guy looks modest and quiet, but it's just a superficial judgment. In fact, he is a real beast who must be judged with the utmost rigor.
This story is gripping from the very first episode. There is a well-developed plot, beautiful, authentic shooting, as well as strong acting. So, if possible, be sure to watch Chikatilo. You need to know the psychology of a maniac.
