RUMBA

About This Movie

Rumba is a quirky 1999 Russian comedy directed by Dmitri Frolov. It’s not your typical musical—there's a certain absurdity that feels fresh. The pacing is playful, weaving the story with rhythmic charm. The practical effects, especially in dance sequences, have this raw energy that really stands out. Performances are lively, filled with character, you can tell the actors are having a blast. The film plays with themes of joy and spontaneity, almost like a celebration of life’s little moments. And that nod to Lumiere's The Arrival of a Train? It gives it a unique twist, blending nostalgia with modern creativity. Overall, Rumba feels like a delightful, if slightly chaotic, romp through the intersection of music and humor.
