jowillshonnickelabarbarosadavinelirischlicke s the first part was kinda confusing cuz i didnt understand why everyone was foaming at the mouth like they had rabies - and the one i watched didnt have an official english translation so my understanding was really sideways. but the visual elements in this movie was a-mazing ! i loved it. its a shame that vasiliy met the fate he did- he could've had a promising career had he moved to the states. anyways the love interest was so random he stumbled across a pink shop that looked like a candyland and fell in love with the waiter- to be honest he had more chemistry with her brother gai/guy than the actual love interest lmao. it also would have been nice to see him return to where he came from and brought along guy/gai and the girl with him, i'd like to see his life on earth which wouldve been very different to the totalitarian place he crashed into. SPOILER ALERT- wow i cant believe guy died i really liked him bro Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/02/24 Full Review Audience Member Shot close to the original novel plot-wise it lacks its essence though. The performances and some of the visual effects are at the very least questionable. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Awesome SF movie. Love the short cinema cut. But adore the two long movies. More stuff like that would be awesome and really enjoyable. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Based on the novel but far from it, this film delivers action along with an interesting universe of characters, environments, drama. To bad it's not widely available in the US because I think Sci-Fi fans would love it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Imagine Star Wars meets Blade Runner... in Russian Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Il se passe, semble-t-il, plein de choses dans ce film de Science-fiction russe, techniquement aux normes de l'année 2012, esthétiquement intéressant à l'occasion, scénaristiquement portnawak. Un bellâtre frisotté aux pouvoirs surhumains échoue sur une planète. Aide la dictature en place. Puis aide les rebelles. Tombe amoureux. Se fait des potes. Comprend des choses. Refuse d'exécuter les ordres. Enfin, pas forcément dans cet ordre là mais tout était fort confus... "Battlestar Rebellion" (c'est simple, quand vous ne trouvez pas de titre pour un truc de SF, appelez-le "Battlestar quelque chose") est inspiré de la bande-dessinée soviétique de 1969 "Prisoner of power". Pourtant, rien à voir avec le matérialisme de "Solaris" puisque l'aspect narratif passe nettement au second plan, le réalisateur étant très occupé à compiler les séquences explosives et à s'attendrir sur une romance bidon Le film souffre de la tare récurrente qui frappe les Blockbusters russes (y compris les plus réussis comme "Daywatch") : même quand le fond se montre digne d'intérêt - ce qui n'est pas spécialement le cas ici -, les réalisateurs s'en foutent royalement et concentrent toute leur énergie sur le volet hollywoodien - dans le plus mauvais sens du terme - du film. Il en résulte un gloubiboulga à peine cohérent en guise de scénario, et des scènes d'action qui, du coup, perdent tout enjeu. Le spectateur occidental n'étant pas familier des héros russes, ni incité par patriotisme à s'ébahir sur une technique honnête mais pas renversante, il s'endormira très vite.
