Think twice before watch

Do you really need it? Well, in fact I can really say that Russian film-making industry have some bright names of wonderful actors that were shining in soviet movies but because of the nature of USSR their name didn't go far away from USSR and world doesn't know them... now, the new generation of actors and directors are coming in Russia, but sadly, they just have nothing that will make their film really their... they have no signature at all... they try to make Hollywood films inspired by American actors and way the Americans shoot, but they forget that they just can't afford it...

This film wants to be the sci-fi fantasy thing but in fact all it has are not talented actors, dumb directing, some more or less good soundtrack put in in a wrong places and little bit of story... well... the story is the only reason why I am giving it 3 out of 10, not 1

Missed genre "comedy", cause i laughed at times and missed all the other genres...

After the collapse of the Soviet Union Russian film industry was brought to its knees and during the following decade ( 1991-2001 ) there were made only few good films. Reason was obvious - not much money was spent on the industry. Anyway, at some point watching this film i felt myself being back in the times of 1995 and watching Russian movie - a newcomer...

I'm not going to criticize the actors and their work ( acting ), because i realized after 15 minutes watching, that it wasn't any serious nor wanna-be-Hollywood film. I liked soundtracks, some of them were really nice ( but again didn't fit with the video, they should have worked more on synchronizing ). CG, well... Considering, that IT is so popular in everyday life, that even a teenager can make a better 5 minute film with his "awesome tuning programs".

Now the story. Book was waaaay better... If the filmmakers had thought about making really serious film with some blood-spilling action, CG at its top ( god, aerodynamics and a lot of flaws connected to physics ) and putting better actors ( or make the ones act better ) and of course change scenery itself to more realistic ( ha ha, Ancient Egypt my a*s ), it would had been probably a very great sci-fi film from Russia ( with love ) for sure ( and not for kids anymore :P ).

On the whole, story - quite good, but ruined by everything else. Again, more sedatness to the filmmakers and they could have pulled a Homer!

Exceptional piece of bull

Before I watched this "masterpiece" I checked the budget vs box office rating. It's 25 (3.5 million) to 1 (138,000) respectively! After that I just couldn't resist...

The movie is a good example of a cultural decadence in modern Russia. When Russian producers inspired by Hollywood movies (too much Spy Kids I guess) are trying to copy the style, this is exactly what we get. Pretty decent computer graphics/animation (now I know where these 3 and half million went) and absolutely awful script and acting. It's even worse considering the fact that it's a movie for kids. Constant teenager slang and brute humor won't make the younger generation better for sure.

Recommend watching to those who just love slapdash in its pure form.

Childhood

[shinchanleekpop · 8/10 · 8 December 2020]

Yes, it's not good, but this book and this movie have a lot of people who really really like it. I tried watchign this lovie in english and it was aweful. As i already speak and understand russian, this is a whole other stroy. It is genuinely funny in russian. Watching this as a child, i fell in love immediately. Watching it as an adult, sure, i cringed a lot, but still love it. The effects aren't good, but this movie never said to be hollywood or smth, it's a comedy afterall, hence, it's a very old movie and they didn't have the technology back then to make it look really good, same goes for example Lava girl and shark boy. You immediately know it's not going to be a masterpiece, yet it's a childhood memory which we can look back with a smile.

This film did not catch the attention of many viewers, but the plot is excellent, the film deserves attention, I wonder if there will be a remake?

This film was recommended to me by a friend. Before watching, I read the comments, many people did not like this film, and there are a LOT of comments on this film that are not related to this film, and this film was on my watch list for a long time, but when I watched it, I realized that, probably, many of those who wrote that the film is bad, did not even watch it or watched it in a very bad translation.

The film is cool and exciting, but for some reason it did not find much popularity among the audience, I think due to the fact that it was released quite a long time ago, as if at the junction of eras, and therefore this film did not fall into the field of view of many viewers.

Aziris Noon's film is wonderful, striking with its locations and its cool special effects, exciting plot and humor, it impresses with its versatility and exciting dynamics, their story is impressive and inspiring, I really liked it.

I watched this film with my family with great interest and pleasure. Children are delighted with this film. We really enjoyed this adventure. The film touches on deep and relevant topics, making the audience think about the meaning of life, time, values and choices. The film strikes a good balance between humor and seriousness, as well as between complexity and accessibility.

The actors play just fine, they get used to their roles perfectly and convey the personalities and moods of their characters. They play with such sincerity and enthusiasm that it is impossible to tear yourself away from the screen. I really enjoyed their adventures in Egypt, and it's interesting to see how the filmmakers imagined what the world of the future might look like, and the episode of the boys' meeting with a representative of the people of Extraterrestrial civilizations is funny.

The film deserves attention and praise because it is touching, kind, and funny. The plot does not lose its relevance and attractiveness over time, which is suitable for viewers of any age and teaches friendship, curiosity and joy of life. I really liked Aina's phrase: "don't forget who you really are." I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to watch a high-quality and exciting film. The film evoked positive emotions. The plot is great, but the end of the film was somehow squeezed a lot. I wonder if there will be a remake?
