4.0 out of 5 stars Where's the Gorilla?, May 16, 2004

By

This review is from: Gorilla Bathes at Noon [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Viktor is an attractive and amicable Russian soldier stationed in Berlin shortly before the reunification. As his tour comes to an end, he phones home, only to discover an unfortunate fact. While he was doing his international duty occupying Berlin, a certain cab driver has been occupying his house, taking care of Viktor's domestic duty to his wife and child. So Viktor stays in Berlin, camping out with a motley group of homeless hookers and small-time hoods. Viktor loves Berlin, but he also has undying loyalty for his Socialist motherland. He proudly wears his uniform, and in vodka-induced dreams receives visitations from an oddly effeminate Vladimir Illich (Lenin). He has occasional flashbacks of the Victory, when his Red Army parents met at the Reichstag. If he gets too homesick --or just too hungry -- he visits his "compatriot", the Siberian tiger, at the zoo. (Despite the title, there is very little about a gorilla.) Viktor and the storyline wander rather aimlessly and light-heartedly through this Serbian film. Most of the dialogue is in charmingly accented English, and there are subtitles when German and Russian are spoken.

I just need to note that for some reason this film was listed as Russian, which it most definitely is not.
