Audience Member Splendedly perverse Soviet movie about young soldiers who get wet, lose their clothes, and die, with amazing repetition for 65 minutes, The dialogue is as sparing as the uniforms. Contains poetic violence, male nudity and some rather lingering camera shots... Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Thought provoking and quite disturbing. I felt cold all over for most of the film and the homoerotic nature of it is evident. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member jarring, strangely sexual, stark and engaging all at once. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member I know I don't get the story, don't even know if there is one, but the representation of what it was like (as far as movies portray truth) to be in the Soviet army is intriguing. It makes me wonder about modern army training programs and what they require of the recruits - how they are treated, whether or not they are allowed to retain any of their own humanity, how their military experience transforms them, does it rob them of or endow them with a better life? Lots of questions. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member (**): [img]http://images.rottentomatoes.com/images/user/icons/icon13.gif[/img] This film is not awful at all. I just felt that there was too much subtext and symbolism in the film and I just didn't get what most of it meant. I like that it still was made against the pressure of Russian censorship but maybe a second viewing might change my mind. Plus, the film is only about 70 minutes so it didn't bother me too much.
