Not just a suspense film

Maybe it’s because I don’t know much about the history of the Soviet Union... The film was so fast at the beginning, the amount of information was so large that it was difficult to digest, and it was even difficult to understand the background of the story. When I saw the protagonist and his wife being dismissed and placed there, I finally couldn't help Baidu the film, only to realize that it was a film adapted from a novel based on real events. Speaking of "adapted from real events", I like the most: D Continue, after probably understanding the political background of the times, I finally connected the previous episodes. It became clearer when I looked at the following plot, and I thought it was a good story. In general, for a historical novice, it is still quite difficult to fully enjoy this film. First of all, the protagonist Leo, a heroic soldier who is loyal to the party, if the reason for his inner change is not understood by everyone, the charm of this story has been lost half. Therefore, for those friends who think that the story line is messy and indecent. My suggestion is that everyone should understand the background of the story before watching it, and don't watch this film with the mentality of just watching a suspense-solving film. At least I think it is more reflection on history than solving suspenseful cases.

    It's a shame I was looking forward to it so much, what the hell did I shoot? Suspense is not like suspense, and politics is not like politics. One time political persecution and corruption, another time crime solving, and the male protagonist and the villain are also inexplicably connected. What do you want to say? The most annoying thing is that a bunch of British and Swedes speak with a suffocated Russian accent, and the bad reviews in caps!

    How could the score be so low? It's basically a story of pursuing justice, upholding morality and building trust in a situation where there is no justice, morality and trust. From the lines to the character setting to the plot setting, this irony is reflected. To say that this film is suspenseful or thrilling is definitely not grasping the humanistic feelings.
