      Philip French Guardian It has a pared down quality that invites, indeed virtually compels, the viewer to see it as some kind of allegory. Apr 23, 2011 Full Review Anthony Quinn Independent (UK) It proceeds at a dour and Russian kind of pace, mildly intriguing without ever cranking up the pressure to become compelling. Rated: 2/5 Apr 22, 2011 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian A gripping, involving and wonderfully acted piece of work. Rated: 4/5 Apr 21, 2011 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Bleak and unfulfilling psychological thriller set at a Russian meteorological camp on a desolate island in the Arctic Circle. Rated: C+ Jan 11, 2012 Full Review Simon Weaving Screenwize A cinematic and dramatic treat, this spectacular piece of contemporary Russian filmmaking follows two meteorologists stationed on a remote Arctic island. An allegory on old and new Russia, it's part art-house thriller and part atmospheric poetry. Rated: 4/5 Jun 26, 2011 Full Review Alistair Harkness Scotsman Though gripping for large stretches, the lack of forthcoming information - especially with regards to Pavel - proves more frustrating than enigmatic, with the tension dissipating at crucial moments. Rated: 3/5 May 16, 2011 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member Unsatisfactory. Inexplicable characters and thus plot. Watch it for the scenery only. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member fantastic character-driven movie. Love these two actors. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Fierce moral drama and what a jackass of a main character. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Gurellia Film-Making At An Extra-Ordinary Level Of Isolation Bring A Desolate Northern-Russia Landscape Alive. The Slow Pace, Bizarre Story & Bland Script Pushed My Limit Of Carte-Factor. I Watched This In Two Seperate Hours & Still Found It A Real Struggle. If It Weren't For The Amazing Landscape Photography I'd Have Given It A Near Zero. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member gr8 to look at thats about it flimsy plot slowly too slowly paced and one character is in the same clothes for the whole movie-gross. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Unreasonably lengthy. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
