As a Romanian teenager who likes this band and its songs and likes history and such (although I don't speak Russian and watched it with subtitles), this movie is great for me! The plotline is also interesting, as it reminds me of how drug addiction was some problem in the USSR back around the 80s (although from what I've heard, it wasn't that prevalent, neither a serious problem). Considering there was some business stuff in the movie, I didn't really understand what happened, but I know that Moro (Viktor Tsoi) goes to present-day Kazakhstan to extract debt from a criminal called "Spartak", then he goes to his ex-girlfriend called "Dina", whose father died, and she let him stay in her apartment. I don't really know much of the plotline, but from what I can remember, Dina was addicted to drugs and Moro had to save her from that, but goes into trouble with some local drug mafia stuff. The soundtrack is also very cool, ESPECIALLY at the end, where it plays one of Tsoi's most popular songs from the USSR! I also have liked the scenes where it took place in a sunny wasteland (I'd say). In conclusion, this movie was pretty much great to me, not my personal best, but it's a great one, even though it doesn't go up with the standards with Western movies (just like Romanian movies before the 90s to be honest). Some parts weren't boring, some parts were boring.

This is why I give this movie an 8/10. Still, a great movie in my opinion!

I have no doubt that the main reason why many people chose to watch this film was because the Soviet rock legend Viktor Tsoi was the protagonist, and this was my reason for watching too. I have been a fan of his music for quite a while, so was curious how about this film, and it was actually far better than I expected.

Tsoi does a great job at playing the role of the protagonist Moro, and whilst the plot was fairly simple, I still enjoyed it. As many others have also pointed out, the ending scene was very good and I can understand why it became so iconic.

The soundtrack here is also great, with several iconic Kino songs playing throughout the duration of the film, as well as some original music that was created specifically for the film.

Ultimately, if you are a fan of Viktor Tsoi and Kino, you will definitely enjoy this film. However, if you are not, you may not find much that holds your interest unless you are particularly a fan of late Soviet-era films such as this.
