The Man Who Killed Don Quixote

Tragicomic extravaganza from Terry Gilliam.

Director: Terry Gilliam.

He decides to find out how was the fate of the actor, and discovers that a local cobbler who once played Don Quixote has gone mad and seriously thought that he - Knight of the Sorrowful Countenance, and Toby - his squire Sancho Panza. And the mad Don Quixote carries the director and the audience on a journey where truth and fiction are indistinguishable.

One of the main "protracted" in the history of cinema still goes into wide release. Terry Gilliam worked on this film 30 years, but the result justifies all expectations. How are you "Don Quixote"Cervantes once deconstructed the genre of romance, so Gilliam film in a playful and phantasmagoric form disassemble the entire modern cinema. It is sad and true, but bright film about the life and faith of madmen in the harsh reality of business and practicality.

Ruby and master water

Children's cartoon quite a banal story.

Original title: The Ladybug.
Directed by Dean Shi.

Ladybug Ruby lives in a bank in the laboratory. Together with a dragonfly named Lord of Waters, they go on a journey, hoping to get to the mythical Golden Canyon. To do this, they will have to ride a giant bird, lizard win and get away from the royal wasps.

Representatives of the animation of different countries are struggling to catch up with and overtake the work Disney and DreamWorks. That's just get often weak. Another story of insects will be interesting unless very young viewers who have not seen "Antz" and other more prominent representatives of the genre.

Professional

Another crime of the stereotypical Russian bandits.

Original name: Siberia.
Director: Matthew M. Ross.
Starring: Keanu Reeves, Molly Ringwald, Ana Ular.

Lucas Hill sells precious stones. He will come to St. Petersburg for the conclusion of a major transaction, but local dealers cheat him. Hill flying to Siberia, to punish offenders, and meets a girl named Katya, with which the protagonist of the novel begins.

It seems that the West began another wave of "cranberry" of Russian films. But the main problem of the "Professional" is not in the tendency to stereotype and localization strange name. The picture was just boring: it does not quite live up to any of the typical thriller with Keanu Reeves, not to tense thriller, much less to romantic stories. All these parts are difficult stuff is made with each other and do not create a sense of logical and whole plot. The only plus: some scenes actually filmed in St. Petersburg.

Toys for adults

The adult version of "Sesame Street" and "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?".

Original title: The Happytime Murders.
Directed by Brian Henson.
Starring: Melissa McCarthy, Elizabeth Banks, Maya Rudolph.

In a world where puppets live alongside humans, a wave of killings of plush characters shows. To investigate the case together female police officer and a toy - a private detective.

At first glance, this film - an outright parody of "Sesame street"And" The Muppets "(the more so because it took Brian Henson - the heir to the empire puppet Jim Henson). The plot is somewhat reminiscent of the film "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?", The most rude and vulgar shows how it would look in real life: the doll-smoking, foul language and disorderly having sex. But sometimes openly mocking humor sneak and serious motives: these dolls is very much similar to the immigrants living in the United States.

Butterfly

Dynamic and emotional retelling of the classic story.

Original title: Papillon.
Directed by: Michael Noer.
Cast: Rami Malek, Charlie Hunnam, Tommy Flanagan.

French adventurer nicknamed Moth accused of murder he did not commit. His life by the distance on an island prison for dangerous criminals. But Moth leaves no hope to escape and regain their freedom.

Autobiographical Henri Charriere is not the first time transferred to the screen. The authors of the new version had a lot to try to not picture looked a pale copy of the same movie in 1973. Yet they managed to pull off bright and original history. Charlie Hunnam and Rami Malek look convincing in the lead roles, and the plot keeps in suspense until the very end, even though many of the denouement is already known.

Unforgiven

Tragic film from the director's "protector".

Directed by Sarik Andreasyan.
Cast: Dmitry Nagiyev, Rose Khairullin, Marjan Avetisyan.

The movie is based on real events. The plane, which was flying the family Vitali Kaloeva crashed through the fault manager Peter Nielsen. From this point the hero begins to seek a meeting with those from whom life has lost its meaning.

The story a year ago, has moved to shield Americans. In "Consequences," a father who has lost his family, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger. However, Sarik Andreasyan (director of "Defenders") states that began to work on "Unforgiven" even before the Western counterpart. In his version, he tries to show the most tragic destiny of man in despair, using a variety of techniques. And yet, no matter how trying to make Andreasyan gloomy film, it is very difficult to believe in the sincerity openly replayed (particularly voice) Nagiyev.

Search

Detective, everything that takes place on the computer screen.

Original title: Searching.
Directed by Anish Chaganti.
Starring: John Cho, Song Sarah.

David Kim disappears without a trace 16-year-old daughter. The police can not help, but many believe that she just ran away. Father hacks into the computer and the girl learns that his daughter had a lot of secrets, which he did not even suspect.

Timur Bekmambetov, the film involved only as a producer, but his hand is felt from the first frame, because all the action takes place on a computer screen or other devices. But this genre Screen Life successfully combined with the classical detective story. A light form of submission once again reminds us that almost all our life now associated with technology and the Internet. In the picture too straight ending and morality, but this is offset by a good actor game and really confusing storyline.

The kidnappers socks

A simple cartoon with a very unusual characters.

Original title: Lichozrouti.
Director: Galina Miklinova.

young Thief socks named Hihish only learns the wisdom of life. In noskoedov there are two cardinal rules: never take all the couple (and only one sock) and stay close to the people, but not too much. However Hihishu will disturb them, encounter with a gang of hooligans, as well as a professor who has long dreamed to catch at least one thief of socks.

This saves a ridiculous cartoon idea, giving an answer to the eternal question of the missing one sock. For so fresh and positive ideas he can just completely plot predictability. However, it is not clear to whom this story is aimed. Kids probably will not understand some of the jokes, and adults are likely to be boring.

world heart

History veterinarian from the authors of "Arrhythmia".

Director: Natalia Meschaninova.
Starring: Stepan Devonin Dmitry Podnozov Jana Sextus.

Egor easier to communicate with animals than with people. Therefore, he works at the training station where hunters bring their dogs. Hero gladly treats pets and caring for them. But even away from the big city he has to constantly remember about human concerns and solve problems.

The main thing you need to know about this film: it withdrew Meschaninova Natalia, who wrote the screenplay for "Arrhythmia". Therefore, the atmosphere in the picture is about the same: internal conflicts, everyday tragedies and difficult life of the common man. Only in comparison with the "Arrhythmia" this film is a bit more detached from reality. Here and profession of the hero more specific, the main action and sometimes it seems too sluggish. But serious questions about human relations story raises no less.

The mystery of the clock at home

Children's fairy-tale horror movie.

Original title: The House with a Clock in Its Walls.
Director: Eli Roth.
Starring: Jack Black, Cate Blanchett, Kyle MacLachlan.

Junior Lewis enters the strange house of his uncle. Here, straight from the walls can hear the clock ticking, the pictures come to life, and in the dark corners of the strange creatures lurk. He is to plunge into the world of magic and sorcery, which he did not even know.

Of course, we should not compare this film with the best representatives of fairy tales for children. There is no scope "Harry Potter"Finesse or" House of the nation's children Miss Peregrine. " Still, the authors of the picture cute and well combined scary and funny and eventually show a funny story that will be pleased to review Halloween.

3 days with Romy Schneider

A touching story, told in an interview with the popular actress.

Original title: 3 Tage in Quiberon.
Director: Emily Atef.
Starring: Marie Bäumer, Birgit Minichmayr, Charlie Huebner.

Austrian actress Romy Schneider became famous as early as 15 years. World fame has brought her role in the movie "Sissi". However, by the age of forty, it has turned out to be a broken lives of women with depression and alcohol dependence. Schneider avoided the press, but a year before his sudden death, she gave a very emotional and frank interview to the newspaper Stern. It is this moment and decided to show the film.

The picture captures a very small part of the life of the famous actress. But to watch this movie, it suffices to know only the most superficial facts of her biography. In fact producer shows clear all history of a lost woman. Black-and-white picture of a minimalist entourage rests primarily on the actor's game, and everything is coping perfectly well, especially as the female lead is very similar to the very Schneider.
