Siberia

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Icily inhospitable to compelling performances or a sensible narrative, Siberia offers audiences a harsh and seemingly interminable exile from entertainment.

Ed Potton Times (UK) Ross is clearly going for a stylish sense of Slavic ennui, but there's a fine line between that and completely aimless. Rated: 2/5 Nov 19, 2018 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review There are these elements in it that are quite tough and nasty that it doesn't earn the right to have. Nov 17, 2018 Full Review Cath Clarke Guardian It's a film with ambitions to do something more than the video-game shootouts of John Wick. But what that is, I don't think the film-makers ever discussed in detail... Rated: 2/5 Nov 15, 2018 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews It might be atmospheric and chilling, but is also too cold and muddled. Rated: C+ Feb 26, 2023 Full Review Pablo O. Scholz Clarín Siberia not only contributes nothing... as entertainment nor to Keanu's career, but it is unnecessarily boring. [Full review in Spanish] Aug 10, 2020 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed ... the film ends up feeling odd and not quick centered. Reeves is decent as he's been seemingly unable to do badly in the last decade with Ana Ularu shining, ... Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 11, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Scott G I gave it two stars on because I'll watch anything with Keanu but this was so slow that at one point I fastforwaded just to see what happened. An then NOTHING! Sad Sad Sad Movie. He must have been doing someone a favor. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/03/24 Full Review Jonathan H Oof. I randomly watched this movie on Paramount + just to pass the time during some mindless work and wow, was it bad. It felt like it was 4 hours long. And not in a "Lord of the Rings" good or epic way. I did actually watch until the end and simply had to ask, "Okay, what was the point of that?" There is no good answer! What a waste of Keanu Reeves. I'm surprised he took this role. It's a very bland, unlikeable and meaningless character. And it's not like the acting was overtly bad. KR was adequate and everyone else was fine. But the story was just so convoluted, senseless and boring. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Elaine B Completely confusing I lost track of where the fake and real diamonds were. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/19/24 Full Review Joshua E I lazily put on this film over the weekend, decided to google some reviews whilst waiting for it to start... The reviews said Serbia was dreadful, and I almost stopped the film! But, I'm really glad I didn't. The slow pace of Serbia was actually really engaging and effective, and a good match for this type of movie. We're so used to constant 'life and death' situations that the softer, more human parts of character and plot development really suffer. In a lot of ways, the plot clumsily plodded along, but this worked quite well as the driving force of the sloppiness wasn't in the writing, but more in the intense love interest - it felt relatable as a sudden lust/love causes rationality to go out the window. There's a great chemistry in the romance. Reeve's character is far less 'superhuman' in this role. Imperfect. Less Capable, Immoral at times even. It's makes for a refreshing change to the John Wick badassery we all know and love As for the bad: Yes - the bad guys in this film are quite 2 dimensional, which is the main critique I have for the Russian gangsters. But this also gives more room for the relationship and the rippling impacts to breathe. I'm glad they focussed on that over character development for the antagonist. I even think reflecting that love is the main conflict point / antagonist in Serbia - like how fate can take sinister turns when distracted by lust. Loved the ending too - I wont spoil it, but it doesn't wrap every story thread up in a neat bow, you're left guessing what happens next. Watch it and make your own mind up - if you enjoy slower paced films then great, just don't expect another John Wick-style affair... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/21/24 Full Review Kathy V Garbage trash movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/24 Full Review angela g the worst Keanu reeves movie ever the ending sucked the story changed when the 40 minute mark of the movie is stupid they had a story but they changed it Keanu reeves and everybody was horrible in the movie the performance's are great but the ending to this movie is terrible there where only 2 fight scenes in this movie horrible people great acting terrible ending just stupid movie we hated this movie don't watch this movie Keanu reeves fans Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
