A Major Disappointment
This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Sorry for bad English. I saw that movie once, 10 year ago. "Armavir" - invented ship. It was similar story with real Russian ship "Admiral Nakhimov" - it sank 31 august 1986 near Novorossiysk (Black Sea). 423 people are dead. This movie not only about shipwreck, but about love father to daughter. About hope and despair, ...memory and oblivion, ...revenge and remorse. One shot of tragedy and father to rush via all Russia, to find and save child, adult child, but he will always protect her. One month after tragedy, and nobody want know about that. It is not Xmas story, it is real life. It is distressing sight, but it's necessary to begin to think. This story have not time and place, it is story about us.
