If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
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.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
This film recently showed at the Syracuse International Film Festival. I thought that it was well made and fast moving with a good score.The "homeless" children that act in the film are 1000 times better than the typical garbage that comes out of Hollywood. I was concerned for them from the start. Some great moments of action when two rival street gangs fight, the director shows us very little, making the action that more intense.The movie tilts towards the bizarre when the homeless boy befriends a general at a camp that trains "War Dogs". The visual comedy of this entire segment kept me laughing.The film ends with a statistic that mentions that there were over 2 million homeless kids in Russia in 2002. Look for this one.
When after viewing this film you leave on street, you start to look at the world already absolutely other eyes. It is film about love, about friendship, about fidelity and adventures. It is film that we always shall live how we would like, how prompts us heart. Remarkable OST superb supplements this film. In its record have taken part Julia Chicherina, Mangol, group "7B" and others.
