I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
I am first time watched "Admiral Nakhimov" on Russian TV when I was six or seven years old. At these days I was a big fan of epic naval adventures, and that movie easily became one of my favorites. Today, twenty years later, I watched my childhood favorite again. And you know what? It impress me again! I know that many people can say, that there is a lot of historical mistakes in that film. That is true. But also that movie is a great mix of battle epic and drama. There is an outstanding naval battles and truly breathtaking moments, like sinking of ships of the Russian Black Sea fleet in Sevastopol harbor, by his own sailors.
