      The original soundtrack album of this title contains quotes from the final episode that reveal a major spoiler.
    • Goofs
      Towards the end of episode 13 we get too see a close-up of Phil's left hand. Even though he has been hospitalized in a full coma for several years, he has a suspicious amount of dirt under his fingernails. In reality a coma patient would hardly have the chance to get his fingernails dirty.

      Boy on a bicycle: Sasha Belov arrived gimme a ruble! Gimme a ruble!

      Pchela: What? Come on.

      Boy on a bicycle: A ruble!

      Pchela: Here, for daddy, mommy and grandma. Get it.

      Boy on a bicycle: You're such a sucker, Pchela!

    You know, I remember the time when all the kids were trying to look and act like Sasha Bely and his fellows. There were different bands in the streets, who called themselves "Brigada" and they thought that they were cool. It was hysteria and obsession. But it proves the great influence this movie can have on you.

    Actually, it happened for real. All this Russian mafia, brutality, numerous crimes really took place when the era of Soviet Union was coming to its final. The only drawback of the movie that Sasha Bely and his band seem to be heroes, but in fact they were just criminals. Though it's a film, isn't it?

    Those who do not like criminal dramas can find there a wonderful story of friendship and love, and excellent playing. Actors have done a wonderful job. So enjoy the movie!
