        Varvara Nikitichna: You crossed everything out.

        Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: Well, just some minor things. For example, "the goat gave an inhuman squeal." That's a little too much.

        Varvara Nikitichna: So, what kind of squeal?

        Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: Just simply, "the goat squealed."

      Funny movie with an interesting start
      I enjoyed watching the film. I wasn't quite sure what to expect. The film seemed to lack any action when I first watched it.

      Initially, my thoughts were he was just a man trying to have it all. He was always willing to help people and wanted the most out of life. There seemed to be a lot going on in his life.

      After discussing it with a few others, I realized how little he was in control of happenings.

      Overall, It was a good film that held my interest throughout. There was a good amount of humor that I extracted from the film. I just wish there was a little more action. I was waiting for an interesting twist to come into light, but it just seemed like a normal guy doing somewhat unscrupulous things.

      I would recommend this film if you want to kill time. It was pretty funny and semi engaging. It didn't have anything that was outstanding about it though.
