Description

Tank commander Kalashnikov is severely injured in battle in 1941. The accident leaves him incapacitated and unable to return to the front line. While recovering in the hospital he begins creating the initial sketches of what will become one of the world’s most legendary weapons. A self-taught inventor, Mikhail Kalashnikov, is only 29 when he develops the now iconic assault riffle — the AK-47.

I liked. First of all, I didn't know anything about Kalashnikov, now, after watching, I read the biography to verify it. And secondly, I liked the hero himself - a modest, purposeful guy.
I advise you for general self-development.

I can't say that this is a brilliant retelling of Kalashnikov's biography, but the film really turned out to be quite good. Without unnecessary falsehood and to the point.

Yuri Borisov fit into the role abruptly.
I didn't know a single detail about how this weapon was created before viewing, I looked without looking away, I recommend it.

The film is quite good, but it does not pretend to be reliable. Especially after 1946. The ending is more artistic than realistic.

Remembering the story about the Stg scheme on the monument to Mikhail Timofeich, which broke out in 2017, I was surprised by the drawing from the film. There are clearly traces of Sturmgewehr here, but according to the film it's 1942, it's a bit early for such a drawing. But I clarified it, opened the necessary pages and found out. It was in 1942 that the development of prototypes began, which would soon produce the Stg-44, the best machine gun in Europe at that time.
So here, in Kalashnikov's notebook, there is obviously an Easter egg hidden-a message for supporters of the theory of cooperation between representatives of several countries in the creation of AK.
Although, to be fair, the German design department should have been added to the film, as well as the German documentation. All Soviet weapons developments after the war had a large trophy component.
