Awais S very good, but where's the rest of the story at MovieThirst Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/14/23 Full Review Gianmarco R Film without the slightest sense, poorly written and with an avalanche of both logical and plot holes. In general the film opens very well giving you a very good introduction that makes you empathize with the protagonist and makes you enter completely into the story, but after the beginning the film begins to decline in quality, meaning and continuity as if they had lost the desire to make the film, and in the end you wonder how it could have happened to this film to degenerate in this way Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/12/22 Full Review Audience Member I seem to be watching all the imaginative Russian movies. So far Attraction (first one) is by far the "must see." Coma (Koma) is second-best so far. Then maybe Guardians (the Russian Avengers super hero movie). A rough draft is handsomely mounted and wonderful casting. VFX are world-class. The original novel author and this screenwriter need more reading and practice creating imaginary worlds to establish one; then, confidently switch between multiple ones and keep audiences emotionally engaged. A Rough Draft has a striking premise, revealed in the last five minutes, but the script does not use it as a driving plot device. Possible to learn how to script this by studying time travel scripts and TV shows. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member "A Rough Draft" manages to be a pretty entertaining, highly conceptual sci-fi story. Much like "Night Watch", the film's big theme is alternate realities, filled with near supernatural characters who have learned to manipulate and control destiny. It is instantly a fascinating concept and begs of intrigue. I found the film interesting from the beginning. Although "A Rough Draft" suffers similar flaws as "Night Watch", lack of depth in regards to character development and a true human touch, the movie gives us a fun ride with cool characters. The writing does hint at cookie-cutter hyperbole, the cast interact with enough comfort to create engaging story development and drama. The special effects wag between creative high concept CGI elements and mockbuster aspiration. The film is visually stunning with various Moscows showcasing some exciting possible realities. There is some really memorable scenes that almost brings to mind "Inception" level effects, my favorite involves a Matryoshka doll. Overall "A Rough Draft" is a very entertaining, highly engaging sci-fi action movie with cool effects and stellar cinematics. It isn't quite as high impact as "Night Watch", but it is a proper effort. Still the film does lack true depth inregards to connecting on a personal level. The characters don't completely feel fully drafted. That being said, the movie is worth watching and should be entertaining to sci-fi fans.
