| Chicago TribuneDave KehrThe movie is Rambo crossed with Fraternity Vacation and a bad cartoon version of One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich. It's an amazingly senseless movie, done with blood-curdling confidence. Each jaw-dropping howler is staged with such rattling intensity and perfect, seamless idiocy that it becomes weirdly amusing. |
| The New York TimesCaryn JamesComprised of so many derivative bits and pieces that it's not surprising the movie has too little narrative coherence or momentum to keep us going, and no characters we care about enough to root for. |
| Miami HeraldBill CosfordThe strange thing about this film is that there are some interesting--albeit half-baked--ideas floating around in the script, and the direction shows some skill and style. However, the plot is ludicrous from start to finish, the characters one-dimensional, and the world-view simplistic. |
| User ReviewPrivate UA very dark, edgy story from the Soviet era. Excellent, compelling story if you can stomach the 80's special effects. |
| User ReviewShawn WThe only thing that makes this movie watchable is the fact that you can laugh at how dated it is. |
