    Not What I'd Thought
    Recently, I was in the mood for foreign horror films and came across this tittle. I forgot where, but they explained that "Zhit" was a horrific film with brutal elements, thus, I had to see it for myself.

    As it turned out, "Zhit" was a horrific film with brutal elements, but it wasn't horror. It was more drama than anything else.

    This film was as bleak as other films I'd seen, like "Man Bites Dog", "Clean, Shaven", "Cannibal", "Manon of the Spring" and "Schramm" to name a few. There weren't any happy moments in it all, so stay away if you're sensitive to such things.

    This movie could also have been 30 minutes shorter because, in quite a few scenes, the static shots lasted way too long. In fact, some of the camera work/framing was questionable, like long static closeups which served no purpose. Watch this movie if you absolutely have nothing else to do.
