About This Movie

So, 'The Lion's Share' is this gritty action-crime flick from 2001 that dives into the world of ex-FSB operatives. It’s got this raw tone, really captures the desperation of these guys who were once on top of their game and now they’re just trying to survive after a botched mission. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it adds to the tension, you know? The practical effects here are decent, not groundbreaking, but they serve the story well. The performances are pretty solid too, especially the lead who brings a lot of depth to a character that could easily have been one-dimensional. What’s distinctive is how it explores themes of redemption and betrayal amidst high-stakes action. Definitely a unique entry in the genre.
