Power

Another transformation of Christian Bale in the satirical film about politics.

• Original title: Vice.
• Director: Adam McKay.
• Starring: Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Sam Rockwell.

George Bush - younger proposes Dick Cheney to be his vice president. He agrees, and, thanks to the unique gift of persuasion and sharp mind actually starts to run the state, while remaining in the shadows.

One of the major contenders for the "Oscar" goes to Russia with great delay. He has eight nominations, including "Best Film", "Best Director" and "Best Actor", which is already attracting attention. In addition to filming Christian Bale once again it has changed beyond recognition, becoming really like the real Dick Cheney.

However, those who are going to watch "Power", keep in mind that the director Adam McKay likes to complex patterns, laden political and economic terms. The comedy here is intertwined with serious themes, and genre of the story is sometimes difficult to understand. Yet caustic satire on American power deserves viewing.

Tobol

Russia's new movie for fans of costume drama.

• Directed by: Igor Zaitsev.
• Cast: Ilya Malanin, Dmitry Nazarov, Dmitry Dyuzhev.

Peter Guard officer Ivan I Demarin goes deep into Siberia - in the border town of Tobolsk. There he meets his first love and should continue in the search for the city's shopping Yarkand and gold deposits. But Ivan becomes involved in a conspiracy of local princes. Now he has to prevent a war with Dzhungars.

Igor Zaitsev director is not the first time turned to historical subjects. Previously, he worked on TV shows "Yesenin" and "the Great", which took the audience a good idea. But in the full meter retains all the problems typical costume drama: what is happening seems a little theatrical, the story lines are overloaded, the actors often overplayed. On the historical discrepancy can not speak: this sin in nearly all such projects.

"Tobol" will appeal to those who love Russian historical. There's even a battle scenes, shot in a big way, and, of course, the classic love story.

30 crazy desires

Emotional story for fans of Asa Butterfield.

Of course, these scenes in the movie are not new. Strictly speaking, "The Fault in Our stars"In the story, the depth outperform" 30 insane desires. " But this does not prevent the new product to be kind and charming film. Especially that starring rising star Asa Butterfield and much-loved Maisie Williams from "Game of Thrones."

From the "30 mad desire" do not expect any serious plot twists and even a beautiful romantic line. Perhaps he was even too simple and the dynamics are often sags. It's worth looking for a pleasant cast and a simple good morals.

disappearance

Chamber thriller based on real events.

Before the release of the film notes began to appear in the media, if the picture was so terrible that the test shows the audience screamed and almost fainted, after which it had to remount and make it less frightening. But whether the authors are too "facilitated" the action, whether it was all just a promotional campaign. As a result, call the new "Omen" is really terrible is not obtained. This is just another inexpensive horror of the child-maniac.

In the "Omen" does have a successful Screamer and excellent scary scenes. Therefore, fans of the genre will enjoy it. But here waiting for something outstanding is not necessary. And whether it is necessary to say that the Russian name created just to attract attention: no relation to the original "Omen" is not a novelty.

Debutant directing big movies Joe Penna in his painting declined from almost all the excess, making the action itself into a kind of snowy landscape. There are no extra flashback, grotesque emotion or a global tragedy. In fact, "Lost in the ice" - a theater actor. But that's why the film came out very strong. It is entirely built on the game Mads Mikkelsen. And that, despite the restraint hero manages to show a truly tragic story.

Fans and amateur talent Mikkelsen intense chamber music movies exactly appreciate this picture. It perfectly conveys the feeling of loneliness and despair in the Arctic winter.

• Starring: Penelope Cruz, Javier Bardem, Ricardo Darin.

The main character arrives with her daughter at a relative's wedding in a remote Spanish village. But soon tragedy happens, to deal with which will have a local resident Paco - ex-boyfriend of the heroine.

Painting, which originally was called "Everybody knows," on Cannes Film festival We adopted a very ambiguous. Therefore, the Russian rental renamed it the likeness of a successful directorial work Farhadi's "Secrets of the past." However, the best of this new film did not. In it there is a beautiful Spanish landscapes, excellent acting of Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem. But here the story is too reminiscent of Latin American soap operas of the early nineties. All turns too predictable and the characters relationships are attracted too.

"Labyrinths of the past" is worth watching for the sake of acting and a good shoot. Action perhaps like only fans of soap operas.
