Audience Member Great, surrealistic comedy! :) I love it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Unbelievable! Awesome! Witty, kitsch, fun, with an awful music! A tacky rock band from Finland settled in Mexico meet Moses, or the one who thinks He Is Moses to steal the Statue of Liberty's nose. A road movie from Mexico through New York, Ouessant, Berlin, Czech Republic, to Siberia where Jesus will soon be born. The idea and all the fancy post-communist references of the movie makes it a must see. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Not as fantastic as its predecessor, but still silly and sardonic as hell. Not just your run of the mill movie about a Siberian rock band whose manager steals the nose off the Statue of Liberty. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A post-Soviet and pre-9/11 film (nicely featuring the defacement of the Statue of Liberty), again timely given the current (depressed) state of Europe (and capitalism). Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member A rare miss for Kaurismaki. Hard to live up to the first one, for sure. But the problem here is he gets way too surreal and bare and strange. It lacks the warmth and simplicity of the original. And the laughs. Although there are some great lines here, they're few and far between. And the songs aren't as enjoyable for the most part. I'd say watch this if you're a fan, but don't go in expecting much. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Leningradin lehmipoikien paluumatka Venäjälle ei ole yhtä innostava kuin vierailu Amerikassa, mutta on silti monin paikoin hauska, ja tallettaa jotakin ominaista suomalaisesta kulttuurista ja musiikkinumerot raflaavat.
