Even in Ruskaland the lies of sudden love exist. I refuse to accept that both Daniel Craig (Zhenya) and Nadya would both leave their respective lovers over the course of a single night! Poor poor Ippolit, he is exactly right in how he feels as the night progresses. Only in Soviet Russia would a man wear full clothing in the shower, and also use straw to wash himself. I did enjoy this movie, but it really started to annoy me at the same time. If there is anything that high school has taught me about relationships, it's that you can only go hot and cold for so long on someone before the feelings just become cold. That limit apparently does not exist in Ruskaland.
There were a few things that I found interesting/bothered me in the movie. First, why does everyone just seem to walk or drive on the river like it's a common way to move around in winter? Second, in part 2 there was a camera shot that for a few seconds was just extremely low quality in comparison to the rest of the movie. Third, if Daniel Craig remembers his bag several times, how does he forget it when he finally leaves Nadya's house? Finally, why does no one seem bothered that Zhenya has left his almost fiance for a woman he met the night before?
Also, how many of you noticed the similarities between the final two scenes and the bathhouse scene? I noticed at least 4 similarities, and I would love to see if you guys found any more.
