How not to be afraid of the Bolsheviks and Woody Allen – Lenta.ru

In the box – new films by Woody Allen and Guy Ritchie, charming British comedy about a gay union miners and anti-Thatcher, street racers, Norwegian and German hackers, as well as a thriller about how bad it is sometimes meet former classmates. The most important – in the review of “Heathcliff!».

In a small college in New England looked forward to the new professor of philosophy – the reputation of a womanizer, drunk and brilliant expert Kierkegaard to Heidegger is far ahead of Abe Lucas (Joaquin Phoenix ). Upon arrival, it turns out also that the Lucas everywhere ahead outstanding belly – and Heidegger, Kierkegaard, and the severity of his being nailed to the long depression, impotence and the bottom of the bottle. Here only did this once stopped the woman concerned? And Abe sunk just two – drinking and dissatisfied husband colleague, chemist (Parker Posey) and his best student (Emma Stone).

The “irrational person” and a personal intellectual crisis will certainly result in an ironic dostoevschinu. This is a classic Woody Allen – and the charm of the film, as well as differences from all previous master paintings in detail. In deft passing from feuilleton to a farce. In fact, as the selection of actors from Phoenix with his maniacal look up annoying positivism Stone anecdote turns around in a eulogy, such absurd humanity. The fact that Allen, who this year marks the 80 crimes and misdemeanors of mankind, its irrationality, still much hurt to the quick. In fact, how bottomless reserves causticity Woody.

«Damn the Bolsheviks.” “Bloody cowboy.” Agents of the KGB and the CIA Ilya Kuryakin (Armie Hammer) and Napoleon Solo (Henry Cavill) lives in a slightly exaggerated 1960s – and thus their joint work in the unit A.N.K.L. It will be full of quips and mutual macho rivalry. Including – for the attention of their companion on a mission to prevent a nuclear apocalypse, the Germans, with the appearance of a car mechanic, car mechanics unthinkable for (Alicia Vikander). Friendship of nations within a single trio still held – further proof that the security services have smarter people.

It kopek, of course, the plot material. But Guy Ritchie knows his business – and in two hours will never get bored audience, each time inventing new reception (and then, as an experienced magician revealing his mechanics). The British always finds a way to keep the attention and sometimes turn the head – a new perspective for the shooting hook to the right, witty rhymes assembly, carbon musical counterpoint. “Agents” – may not be the best spy movie of the year, but the most technically accurate, this action suits Kaleidoscope that gebeshniki, and hawks, and the Cold War it seem ridiculous colored glass. Rare therapeutic effect!

In London, 1984 gay activist Marc Ashton looks on TV laid off miners by the Thatcher government and sees parallels with his own struggle. A pair of buckets – and Mark and his comrades had already collects fines to support the striking proletarians marching for their rights. He collected a few hundred pounds – more than any other group of aid to miners in the country. The next visit of the initiative group “Lesbians and gay support miners” in the mining town in Wales for a personal acquaintance. It will turn out awkward, comical and sad at the same time – but still mark the beginning of a beautiful, long-running friendship.

«Pride” is full of righteous, almost Komsomol fuse – but no matter how much was obvious attempt to appeal to this tragicomedy, it is not manipulation, and touches the film really. The fact that the fuse is not aimed at combating xenophobia, fear of passing that “Pride” shows the barbarism like biting your toenails. No, the best strength and tradition of British social comedy is thrown out to call for unity – and it’s message is much more work, and the film turns level and charm “The Full Monty” and “Billy Elliot».

And gay capital, and with suspicion takes an unexpected allies workaholic equally thrown to the sidelines of the social process select “tough stance” elite – the authorities and the media under its control. What united if the mine is not re-open, and idiots, degrading gays, not run? The “Pride”, with all its levity, is the answer to this question – a sense of genuine, built on mutual respect and common interests (and such is at all), where national unity durable hatred and fear. The authorities, too – which is now the one Thatcher?

The meeting with a former classmate – the event is not necessarily innocent. Especially if you live in a house about one glass. Especially if your family seems so perfect – and in fact, my wife and then stuffs himself Prozac. Especially if behind the scenes is about to scream violin, and the one classmate to come back to visit, while his wife alone at home.

«gifts» directorial debut specializing in villains Australian actor Joel Edgerton (he plays a classmate) – and it is a rare genre cinema dignity. Any thriller whose plot is and then try on for yourself – good luck. A thriller that also cleverly filmed (Edgerton ingeniously reveals unnerving potential windows in the floor) and unconventional played – all pieces of product.

The story of the German thriller “Who am I” – one big flashback. Mumbles in the hood named Benjamin told the investigator that he became the most wanted hacker in all of Germany: woman, darknet, a casual acquaintance with the macho from kibervzloma Max, tough drive and gradually growing appetites until the abuse by corporations and government officials. Intrigue, respectively, in that you get out a positive, more or less, the guy from the slammer?

The director Baran bo Odar cheerfully as you can – blowing action kiberprovodam and illustrating the high-tech theater masks communication darknet. He, however, did not manage anything more complicated – to cause at least some empathy heroes, so that an application for a local “Fight Club” is not so much a thriller as a bravura portrait generation (gifted as he can mimic early Fincher), it fails.

In Norway, if anyone doubted also have street racers. Moreover – there are the veterans of street racing tuned cars. Some even children grew – from this observation “Scandinavian Furious” and builds the drama, putting his character in a dilemma how to combine cross-country race with a sworn enemy and her teenage daughter.

In short, the stakes in this movie a little lower than the “Fast and the Furious” Hollywood, but there is an opportunity to feel anything except vertigo stunt success and wonder wide neck Vin Diesel. Experienced “Mustang” instead of “Lambo” snoring mate to face the librarian, the difficulties of fatherhood – this film is full of not only a caricature of the Norwegian rap analog compared to Hollywood scenes of races, but also the charm of small homeland and family albums. Not surprisingly, it starts with the initiation of nostalgic classics cine avtopogoni Hal Needham and paternal requests not exceed.
