ALL MONEY AND NO BRAINS


Russian cinema is rapidly changing in the past decade. Huge budgets are making their way into the mainstream movies and that cash flow is now being clearly visible.

Fedor Bondarchuk is one of the directors that received one of those productions and he managed to film a movie that looks like the modern western SFs. However, like in all the other of his flicks, there just isn’t a decent story to follow it.

In a Russian version of „Independence day” meets „Starman” there just isn’t a story at all, not even if you are a Moscow teenager. And that’s a pity, because the money isn’t the issue any more.

„Attraction” is a great looking empty vessel that not only won’t succeed in amusing you, but will manage to seriously annoy you in the end.
