Judging by the ending, polonium is thrown at him, but otherwise they are much inferior to the same slow horses. Well, the scene with the shooting of a platoon of Russian soldiers probably provided them with a budget for the next 5 seasons. This is a crusty
I have the same question as a soldier at the cordon: what the fuck is this? A bunch of soldiers with machine guns, armored personnel carriers, anti-tank hedgehogs - this car would have left a charred frame in less than a minute. It would be better if they didn't even try to play action, but showed more of Fasbender and his beautiful naked African mistress. With these secret meetings of theirs, misunderstandings like she's a spy, or they actually have love, or she's a spy and they have love... In short, this is all, not this is all.
I completely agree with the commentator above. What the scene with the cordon was about is not clear. Well, it is more precisely understandable, but it is terrible, it would be like a sieve from the car in 10 seconds. Otherwise, I love spy series, I will continue to watch.
In general, this series is no longer for a Western audience, as if, but for a Russian one. To stuff more stars so that our sophisticated viewer would definitely not pass by.
@Paramelion: the last paragraph is spot on. We watch with the guy together, his words: "why did they take Gear for the role of Gear? As if another lesser-known actor couldn't have done it."
@phenomenyaa: Well, in general, the series will be revealed later. I really liked it. And Gir is playing great too. And they began to take into account the Russians, too)
The actors speak Russian with a wild accent... Even 10 or 15 years ago, they didn't allow themselves to take Russian actors, and now it feels like I'm back in the 90s! I remember the identification of Born, which is only worth his Russian passport with gibberish in Cyrillic))
Well, the cherry on the cake is the ending where 3 super democratic heroes shoot all the bad Russians under the Nazi slogan, it's just a masterpiece)) curtain!
@phenomenyaa: Where did I write about a LOT of Russians?? On a whim, I immediately think of predators with Oleg Taktarov, for example. By the way, I just watched 2010... That's what I wrote about, that even 10 to 15 years ago they didn't allow themselves to do that!
@FractalCucumber: There are a lot of Russians here. That's the point. And even 10-15 years ago, broken Russian was heard in American films. And when there are a lot of Russians to shoot, the task becomes more complicated)
@phenomenyaa: If you read my comment to the end, you should have realized that my main complaint is not even that, there are things that are simply absurd and there are shamefully absurd ones, as shown in the last scenes at the end of this series... When 3 infantry fighting vehicles under the Nazi slogan in an ordinary car are shot by 2 platoons of professional soldiers on ARMOR! Now these are comics with cartoons, and after that, the desire to look further disappears.
@FractalCucumber: and I'm not arguing with that. Russian Russian actors I'm saying that it's a mistake to assume that Russian actors used to be cast in the role of Russians. The task is especially complicated by the picture, where there are many Russian roles.
@phenomenyaa: I'm sorry to interfere, but for me, The Americans has become an exemplary series in this regard, where the entire Soviet residency speaks normal Russian (except for the main characters themselves, the spies). I was even surprised how seriously they approached the creation.
@phenomenyaa: Orekhov has been captured and he doesn't fully understand who exactly. Therefore, he decided to play the "I belong" card and invented an agent network that allegedly recruited him. Fassbender from war and peace began listing the names and Orekhov confirmed them. That's how they realized that he wasn't a double agent, but just pissed off and wanted to get out.
The commentators above point out the absurdity of the scene with the car passing through the cordon, but for some reason no one is surprised at the absurdity of checking for lice by listing the heroes of War and peace. Kamon, this dude is Russian-speaking, studied (judging by his age) back in the USSR or immediately after its collapse; even if he hadn't read War and Peace, these names were still heard anyway, well, he couldn't help but recognize them and realize that something was wrong. It's kind of idiotic.
