Float through a gritty, medieval, grey world full of shit for 3 hours. A cinematic masterpiece like never seen before. Survive it & enjoy!
Unique and visceral. A little overlong, but it leaves its imprint.
Will change the way you perceive the world, if you can finish it
Amazing! This movie pushes its filth against your face for three hours. If you like Russian cinema and you like the book, then watch it!
I both hate it and love it. Drowns you in filth and confuses the shit out of you. It's probably art. Good luck. Have a drink first.
This is completely unwatchable. Saw it in a filmfest where the directors wife was. 90% walked out on it, and I also caved before the end ;)
A truly unique and incredible film experience.
Very "real" movie. But everyone is always spitting, rubbing stuff on themselves or worse. Feels drunk or mad. Hard to be an audience member.
If you’re looking for profound sci-fi you won’t find it here. You will get to see people wallowing in mud for three hours however.
I didn't get it
