NO-ONE (2018)
4/10
Not a bad foreign indie flick
16 October 2022
No-One is advertised to be ab out how the fall of the Soviet Union affected people in that region. It has the stile of an artistic indie movie, with some gratuitous nudity and mild sex scenes that are pretty normal for the genre. If English is your only language and reading subtitles annoys you, then this isn't the movie for you.

There's a lot of drama and intrigue.

If I'm being honest, much of the movie focuses primarily on affairs, not the political coup, which makes the coup and the collapse of the Soviet Union seem more like a trivial subplot than it was advertised to be. But given the fact that the trailer for the movie on YouTube really told me nothing in terms of what the movie was about, I really had no idea what to expect from it.

Parts of it are slow and draggy, but that can happen even with some of the more top-rated movies. There's a LOT of dialog and very little action, which is odd when you consider that the collapse of the Soviet Union is the backdrop of this movie.

The little bit of action that does occur is completely predictable. And one prop in particular was ridiculously low-budget (watch til the end and you'll know which one. It has old school Evil Dead vibes without the comedy.), which sort of adds to the campiness of this movie.

Overall, it's alright for a foreign indie film. It wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. It could have been a lot better, but it's definitely not the worst indie film I've seen.
