Name: Bravye parni
Genre: Comedy
Duration: 1 h 15 min
Rating: 3.9
Cast: Georgiy Vitsin, Evgeniy Morgunov, Pyotr Glebov

A kind of unsuccessful attempt to revive the popular comic trio of the 60s (for those who don't know - Booby, Coward and Experienced - see the early Leonid Gaidai films), in which Yuri Nukulin is replaced by Spartak Mishulin. There are a few good moments (thanks to Georgi Vitsin who does his job masterfully), but in general the movie is very weak: the plot is unconvincing, the dialogs are not funny, the all-star cast most of the time fails to impress. The cast is really a who-is-who of the gold age of Soviet cinema, but it's just too evident that most of these actors are way too old for a comedy - some of them were over 70 at the time and really looked old and tired. The director's work also doesn't make the movie any better.

Russian cinema is distinguished by its epic scale, philosophical depth, and innovative visual language. It often explores history, ideology, and the human psyche, with a tradition of psychological realism and artistic experimentation. Russian cinema contributed revolutionary theories of editing and later a spiritual approach to film language. It remains known for combining formal experimentation with profound explorations of endurance and belief.

The four veteran pilots were invited by the leadership of the military unit to carry out a special task. And it does not matter that they trade in the market, because everything that happens is just a dream.
