About the film: 

The movie “Spy” (2012) is a debut of the director Alexey Adrianov, and is based on the book “The Spy Novel” by Boris Akunin. It’s a sort of historic cinema-comic, where on one hand, Hitler runs a web-conference, but on the other hand, a serious historic event is presented – the fight between Soviet and German intelligence services in the decisive year of 1941. 

 

It’s worthwhile noting the successful work of the cinematographer and the CGI special effects, which realistically created an alternative Moscow during Stalin times, where in the place of the Church of Christ the Saviour, stands the Palace of the Soviets.

 

Danila Kozlovskiy plays the lead,  easily taking on the role of a superhero, while the well-known Fedor Bondarchuk plays a "stylish Major Oktyabrskiy." 

 

In our view, the film is stylishly similar even with good Hollywood “a la Tarantino”, but you can also see it as an adventurous and self-ironic action movie.

 

We think you will find it interesting to see this engaging film and to discuss the topic of superheroes and the Russian modern cinematography.
