5.0 out of 5 stars Russian comedy at its best, October 23, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Ivan Vasilievich - Back to the Future (DVD)

It is one of the best Russian comedies of the Soviet period. This film is about a scholar who invents a time machine and by accident sends his neighbour and a burglar who happens to be in his neighbour's flat to the time of Ivan the terrible. It is absolutely hysterical. Great cast. Great acting. I have seen this film many times and every time I laugh my head off. I would recommend all the films by Leonid Gaiday.

This review is from: Ivan Vasilievich - Back to the Future (DVD)

God everytime i think about this movie I cave in, because it hurts me to think that none of my friends will ever see it and if they do, they won't get it. It is at times like these I wish we were all one nation. I am myself from Russia and I remember watching this film over and over again and then coming to America and renting it here over and over again. And I just feel angry and sad that no one I know will be able to enjoy this masterpiece...and also all those other masterpieces like: Operation Y, Gentlemen of Fortune, The Adventures of Shrulik and etc. All those films are just plain genius.

This review is from: Ivan Vasilievich - Back to the Future (DVD)

This movie is hilarious. A "modern" Soviet scientist builds a time machine and mistakenly ends up in Ivan the Terrible's palace... and he is transported to the USSR! The premise itself is enough to make you laugh... but the hilarity that follows is indescribable!
