Kalashnikov

About This Movie

Kalashnikov (2014) is a gritty crime-drama that dives into the murky waters of revenge and moral ambiguity. The film centers on a young soldier who witnesses his sister being harassed by a group of boys, and that sets off a chain of events that draws in various characters with their own motives. There's a stark realism in the performances, as the cast navigates a world filled with tension and violence. The atmosphere is heavy, lingering, almost suffocating at times, which really heightens the emotional stakes. Pacing can feel a bit uneven here and there, but it adds to that raw edge. It's a solid exploration of the consequences of violence - not just on the victims but on those seeking justice. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, fit the film's aesthetic well.
