What to see in April: the most interesting film awards

By November 7, 2024December 6th, 2024No Comments

The beginning of the month has come again, and again we talk about the most striking and loud novelties of the movie. They will not necessarily be as good as you expect from them. But you should at least know about them so that you can decide whether it is worth watching them or not.

Battle for Sevastopol

Premiere : April 2 Director : Sergey Mokritsky Cast : Julia Peresild, Evgeny Tsyganov, Joan Blackam What : military drama

About what : Russian answer to the American "" Sniper ". The film about the Great Patriotic War and the famous sniper Lyudmila Pavlichenko, who shot more than three hundred German invaders. In the USSR, Pavlichenko became a star, and after the wound she worked for propaganda – she traveled to Western countries, urging the second front to open. The episode with the battle for Sevastopol was chosen for the name not by chance – politics and today has not gone away. However, a lot of attention in the picture will be paid to the love line.

To whom we advise : Patriots.

Anina

Premiere : April 2 Director : Alfredo contents The roles were duplicated : What : Cartoon-tale

About what : girl Anina's troubles. In punishment for a fight, she was ordered to store some kind of sealed letter and in no case do not open her. Of course, the seal will be disrupted, and adventures will begin Maximum Casino. The cartoon is made using the technique of traditional animation – not so much beautiful as charming and comfortable. The exotic origin of the cartoon is also interesting: it was removed in the Latin American country not most significant for cinema – in Uruguay.

To whom we advise : lovers of non -standard animation.

Furious 7

Premiere : April 9 Director : James Van Cast : Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, Jason Steetem, Paul Walker What : Action

About what : the hero of Jason State will not let the hero of the diesel wine be rested and take revenge on his brother, who was killed in the last film (they have a long story there). You will have to diesel, that is, at home, to collect the old gang again and remember the skills for the crazy driving of steep cars, beat the muzzle and parachute jumps. The hero of the late sex of Walker will appear in “Fast and the Fast and the last time – the unfinished scenes were made with the help of the actor’s brothers and computer graphics.

To whom we advise : those who missed a good portion of adrenaline and testosterone.

Lazarus effect

Premiere : April 9 Director : David Gelb Cast : Olivia Wilde, Mark Duplass, Donald Glover What : horrors

About what : scientists invented a tool that returns the dead to life. But, as you know, to play the gods if you are a character of a fantastic film, this is a very, very bad idea. In a word, instead of the Nobel Prize, heroes get a lot of problems. The revived dead, including one of the scientists, become aggressive, they are haunted by strange visions. The zombie apocalypse, apparently, will not be, but, judging by the trailer, the lady will gain supernatural abilities.

To whom we advise : those who like to tickle their nerves and do not put the originality of the plot at the forefront.

How to catch a monster

Premiere : April 9 Director : Ryan Gosling IN roles : Christina Hendrix, Sirsha Ronan, Matt Smith What : surreal mysticism

About what : a poor family moves to the decline town (shot on the ruins of real Detroit), inhabited by hooligans and rustications. But there is no thin one without good: at the bottom of the local reservoir the heroes find an unknown underwater city. And in this "Atlantis" is much more interesting – judging by the trailer, there is formal surrealism there. But whether there are monsters there, it is not known – in the original the film is called "Lost River". The directorial debut of Ryan Gosling was released in the West back in 2014 and the critics did not like something-apparently, so I got to Russia for so long.

To whom we advise : those who like to contemplate beautiful ruins to meditative music.

Dragon's nest

Premiere : April 9 Director : Yu fen dream The roles were duplicated : Olga Golovanova, Nina Alexandrova, Prokhor Chekhovskaya What : computer cartoon in the fantasy genre

About what : film adaptation of the famous Korean online role Dragon Nest a intricate plot does not differ. A group of heroes – a ranger, archer, knight, sorceress, cleric and two warriors – tries to defeat the evil dragon, that's all. The main charm here comes from a bright and rather unusual picture. The cartoon was made by Chinese animators, and the animation of the Middle Kingdom on our screens is shown infrequently. The creators clearly tried to convey the spirit of the game in everything, and therefore there will be a lot of battles on swords and magic.

To whom we advise : children, their parents and fans of the same name.

Oscar-2015. Short meter: animation

Premiere : April 9 Directors : Michal Brasis, Patrick Osbourne What : Short cartoons

About what : the name of this collection is not quite accurate. It included not only five ribbons nominated for Oscar for the best short cartoon, but also four more short films from a short-list of a bonus. Nine cartoons from three to twenty minutes are made in different styles and are dedicated to different topics – some funny, others rather philosophical. There are both the work of famous studios, such as a “menu” from Disney, and modest, but unusual cartoons of independent artists from around the world.

To whom we advise : to everyone who loves cartoons. The American film academy has selected the best for you.

Number 44

Premiere : April 16 Director : Daniel Espinos Cast : Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman What : Historical detective

About what : In the USSR, Stalin's time is working as a maniac who kills children. The investigator who is looking for him constantly puts sticks in the wheels, because it is politically unprofitable to give the case-there is no and cannot be in the enlightened Soviet Russia. The plot is curious, but judging by the trailer, the “cranberries” risks ruining the whole impression. The authors clearly represented the USSR as a gray and cold world, where there is a lot of vodka and Chekists. In addition, in the original, all the actors also speak with a hilarious "Russian" accent. It’s even a pity that in dubbing it will disappear.

To whom we advise : people capable of free to laugh at the "cranberry".

Avengers: Era of Altron

Premiere : April 23 Director : Joss Widon Cast : Robert Dauni Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hamsworth, Scarlett Johansson What : superhero action movie

About what : Marvel superheroes have new problems. Firstly, the altron robot, who is trying to arrange a car uprising on Earth. Secondly, unpredictable supernomers from Eastern Europe-mercury and scarlet witch. And the heroes sometimes quarrel with each other – so Tony Stark had to create a huge Hulkbaster costume to pacify the incredible Hulk. All this promises a lot of a beautiful fantastic dynamic action. Joss Widon promises that his new film will be much more serious and darker than the first part, and the heroes will have to face their fears. But we know Widon: he definitely won't do without jokes.

To whom we advise : fans of spectacular science fiction.

And the dawns here are quiet ..

Premiere : April 30 Director : Renat Davletyarov Cast : Peter Fedorov, Anastasia Mikulchina, Evgenia Malakhova What : military drama

About what : film adaptation of the famous book by Boris Vasiliev about the Great Patriotic War. Simple heroes of the war-the foreman of Vaskov and his detachment of girl-volunteers-perform a difficult combat mission, often at the cost of their own life. The story has already successfully filmed in Soviet times, but the director of the new version Renat Davletyarov believes that for modern youth you need to make a movie "in its language". Apparently, therefore, the trailer resembles scenes from the film "Stalingrad": no less explosions and shootings than drama.

To whom we advise : those who like the "Battle for Sevastopol".

Dangerous immersion

Premiere : April 30 Director : Ron Skalpello Cast : Danny Houston, Matthew Hood, Joe Cole What : Catastrophe film

About what : a group of divers fell into a storm, and their ship sank. Now the poor people need to somehow get to the surface without perishing from caisson illness and other dangers of the deep sea, who could come to the heads of the scriptwriters. The topic is beaten, but fertile. Judging by the trailer, the creators did not imitate " Abyss »Cameron, as one might expect, and recent" Gravity ", Only under water. In the original, even the name is suspiciously similar – “Pressure” (Pressure).

To whom we advise : lovers of adventure with unpredictable outcome (we do not know which of the divers will survive!).
