Greenes Please don't spend money on this.

Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Ulvi Ismayil Great movie describing how love and affairs worked in the separate world of the late Saoviet politburo members. And how people were persecuted if they stood in their way. Recommended for historians and researchers of the Soviet and post-Soviet history. Professionally speaking, some parts of the movie are made without good decorations of the Soviets and therefore for those who have seen those days, certain scenes look too Italian rather than the Soviet. The director has done his best may be to portray what a lavish live the politburo members were having then. However, the theme does not deviate from the realities. In one word, very recommended.The actress in the leading role looks more Italian, rather than Russian/Soviet. I think a Russian actress could better fit into this movie.
