Did You Know?

Goofs:
Anachronisms: One of the Spanish expletives mentioned is wrong both geographically and time-wise. 'Concha tu madre' is a relatively modern regionalism used in Latin America (mainly Mexico) but not in Spain, and would have never been used by a 17th Century Spaniard of obvious Castilian-Aragonese origin as depicted. The term didn't exist in the time frame of the picture.See more »

Terrifically entertaining historical fantasy, 27 April 2009
Author: steven-222 from Berkeley, CA, USA

This is a terrifically entertaining action-adventure fantasy from Russia. I say "fantasy" instead of "historical epic" because as the movie proceeds the story and the main character, a serf who rises to superhero, become increasingly larger than life. This boldly heroic storytelling makes 1612 seem very old-fashioned, in the best way, even as the film-making is state of the art, with some amazing action scenes and superbly staged battles. The hero is played by Pyotr Kislov, Russia's answer to Orlando Bloom; the antagonist, a Polish warlord intent on marrying the kidnapped daughter of Boris Godunov and making himself master of Russia, is played by Poland's #1 leading man, Michal Zebrowski, who has headlined some impressive action films himself, such as With Fire and Sword. The initial set-up is a bit wordy, but once the action starts it just gets better and better. Great fun (though be prepared for some startling battle gore).
