Sebastian Kichiguine I watched this movie about a couple of years ago, but I do recommend my friends to watch it right until present day.Actually there in only one mistake in that picture - the scene were they threw food in each other. That was out of line, out of spirit of USSR of 60th.10 out of 10/ Outstanding
atakan_kubilay I was thrilled to see this movie, which I finally did. The trailer was promising, as was the name, that includes material which could be subject of several feature films. Sadly, I was disappointed.First, if you make a movie and name it Cosmonaut, one would expect it to be exactly about that. I was expecting to see the heroes of Gagarin, Korolev, Leonov, Kamarov and many others who are only about once mentioned by name and never make an appearance(Gagarin, Kamarov and Korolev, were of course all dead by the time period (wrongly?) chosen). And the beginning was quite promising, starting with the truly amazing recordings two Italian brothers claimed to have made, of a faint heartbeat moving away from earth orbit. The (conspiracy?) theory of lost cosmonauts is an amazing subject, but don't expect much more of it in this movie. The storyline quickly goes into a fantasy world where a stick in the eye MFM relationship is more pronounced than the space flight aspect. I really cannot help but wondering why not choose these characters to be hot blooded college students, with all the fantasy that goes into it. The real story of the cosmonauts is far more interesting, passionate, compelling and thrilling. I was expecting to see the pressures put upon them by a repressive regime, their non-weavering desire to succeed against all odds and incredible visions of space exploration. It's a remarkable human story-just not the subject of this movie. Don't expect to see the self-defense of a group of Soyuz cosmonauts against hungry wolves-a real story where they were not extracted from their landing area for a few days.There is nothing wrong with making a fantasy sci-fi. And this movie could have been exactly that. But instead, using and if I may put it bluntly, hijacking the name 'cosmonaut', or the underlying story, it makes an unfair claim.The movie does include some nice food for thought, one can see how Yulia, making sex with Andrei, and being with Andrei, just doesn't love Andrei. It's a point of the brutal selectiveness of love. And it is a story that could have been told just as well as going on elsewhere. It's a pity because the uniforms and old equipment look so cool, convincing and interesting. This could have been used to create a real space movie that could easily rival Apollo 13.A movie that is really about the cosmonauts, is yet to be made.
CHRIS P BACON Dear god what happened here? i read up about it how 4000 people helped fund the film and all the different locations the story sounded interesting the actors looks plausible a done deal welcome to Hollywood..Err not quite! i sat down with my wife and as we don't watch that many films now a days as we watched them all years ago i thought this sounds a decent film, so on it came with an Italian guy speaking in Italian good job my wife is Spanish as she translated it all, what he was saying sounded interesting and after what seemed like a year before he stopped talking and the film started (He talked way too long), we watched & we watched & we watched there was one thing missing any signs of movement? it was just actors talking and talking and not an ounce of action? i mean i didn't expect a Die Hard film as it was never going to be one but when actors are basically just talking and talking and there is nothing interesting happening..THEN it happened a shot in the woods where a return module/rocket with one man inside had just landed it was red hot it had just entered the earths atmosphere so you couldn't go near it until it cools down fire all around it BUT WAIT! an actor just opens the side hatch with his bare hand? Maybe he was from another film like Iron Man and he has super strengths & cant feel any pain? then there is the point they are all supposed to be Russian and yet are clearly English! it lost a lot of interest from me when they made this decision and they should of had Russian actors either dubbed over or subs it just wasn't original for me! i wanted it to be so much more i was screaming at my TV "Come on guys don't let me down" but they did the film failed in a way i suppose "Shot down in flames" comes to mind! & this is a real shame! simple "Attention to details" would of made this film so much more realistic? the music was lovely in the films and the locations too but for me although the actors where really good the mistakes made it too Amateur so i would only give it a 3/10
San Mahajan I can understand this is a mass funding project and they showing it for free and I should respect the producers and the director but I am not sure why 5000 involved people wasted their money and time after the vision of one guy.. the director who don't even understand what is directing.This movie is just awfully boring from start. After first 5 min I lost the track of what was happening on screen. It is so boring that if you have a sleep disorder you may want to watch it instead of taking sleeping pills.. this movie will indeed make you sleep.Movie should be entertaining, interesting and captivating. This is exactly opposite to that.Don't listen to those positive reviews wrote by their own team to market this crap..Director should be ashamed for wasting everyone's time..specially viewers.In the beginning of the movie they say.. you decide how much you want to pay to watch this movie.. Well.. You need to pay us.. The Viewers to watch this crap.You guys should sell Mars bars at the football game rather then making movies. Cause clearly you don't know how to make a one..
