As a great fan of Aleksey Balabanov movies I probably expected too much from this film and was rather disappointed thereafter. The greatest problem that this movie faces is the lack of the feature film plot. When made in dark style film should use dynamic plot to make up for absence of light as it is effective plot balance. Otherwise it becomes dull, which is the case with this movie. Gruz 200 is following the bitter and creepy faith of the young woman in the last decade of USSR existence. Literally following, because camera goes after her many times disregarding the development of other actions. What film shows that happened to her can be put in just two sentences. Film needs much more than that, otherwise we could go to Somalia, take our camera, find the place of greatest atrocities and shoot the person that was the greatest subject of somebody's tyranny and sadism. Pity for all the film efforts, especially brilliant acting and fantastic camera, could have been better, if the plot axis had been developed more carefully.
