Reviews: "Status: Free" (film 2015). Russian Comedy melodrama directed by Paul Ruminov with Danila Kozlovsky and Elizabeth Boyarskaya in the title roles

Russian cinema has never been especially stable. Rental regularly are films made in different genres. On the screen it is possible to meet as fighters, and detectives. But the greatest success with the audience has always enjoyed romantic comedies. I must say, this genre was most popular in the days of the USSR. So modern Russian Directors inherited this glorious tradition.

That's the only modern Comedy is a little like those naive stories of the past. In particular, the censorship now allows the writers to come up with enough hard, and even vulgar jokes. In the end, they simply began to meet almost every movie. And if at first it was funny, but now the viewer this can hardly surprise. People want something new and more or less original. But, unfortunately, the state is sponsoring for the most part very weak and similar pictures, not worthy of attention.

Something truly worthwhile can be seen infrequently. However, the young Director Paul Ruminov still managed to surprise us. During his not very long career he managed to try his hand in many genres. And the greatest success he has achieved in the romantic Comedy "Status: Free" (film 2015). About this motion picture and will be discussed in this article.

About the film

At first glance it may seem that "Status: Free" - a typical representative of the genre. And this is the truth. The film "Status: Free" is a Comedy in which a love story is harmoniously combined with a good sense of humor. But at the same time Ruminov could bring to this story a lot of rather interesting and original finds, which immediately catch the eye while browsing.

No Wonder the reviews "Status: Free" received mostly positive. The film is really very good. First of all it is connected with a stellar cast and the Studio camera work. Yes, and Ruminov, despite the small experience, perfectly coped with its task. Thus, we received though not a masterpiece, but a very high quality movie representative of Comedy.

Director

As we have noted, the Director's chair film took none other than Paul Ruminov. It is extremely extraordinary personality. Paul makes films on a regular basis. That's just practically never it is impossible to guess what to expect from his next job. Undoubtedly, it is the biggest hit in his career - "Status: Free". Director Paul Ruminov can hardly surpass him in the coming years. Especially considering the fact that it is a couple of years, almost totally immersed in genre cinema.

After Romanov took this largely classic Comedy, he decided to try his hand in such a rare for Russian cinema a subgenre of horror, like slasher. In the end he managed to take non-standard and largely ironic work entitled "Dislik". The film was criticized by the audience and critics. But despite this, Romanov continued to experiment and removed the even more ambiguous "the love Machine". This erotic and very Frank work not spared mass audience side. At the same time, fans noted that Ruminov clearly copied from the recent hit by Gaspar noé called "Love".

In a word, most likely we still will wait for Paul something like "Status: Free" (film 2015). And the producers are unlikely after several failures trust him with any major project. But let's hope for the best.

Cast

Actors of the movie "Status: Free" chosen truly amazing. Both involved young talents and more experienced movie stars. The actors of the movie "Status: Free" fit successfully into their roles and fully reveal the characters. Thus, we are able to empathize with the characters. So in this respect, the movie certainly can't be any complaints. Next, we will talk about the main stars of the film.

Vladimir Seleznev

The actor is, perhaps, not so widely knownthe audience. However, he fully showed his talent in the film "Status: Free". Vladimir Seleznev played the role of a successful forty-year-old dentist, who decided to leave Athena. The actor has charisma, making permanently stored for the audience.

Elizaveta Boyarskaya

Over the past few years the actress has become increasingly popular. Elizaveta Boyarskaya (daughter of well known actor and musician) can be found in every second popular domestic film. She can play both comedies and dramas. You could see her in such popular projects as "Cinderella", "Man from Boulevard des Capucines", "Admiral", as well as in the television series "Anna Karenina" and "Drunk firm". Due to their appearance and talent Elizabeth has quickly enough managed to declare itself. Not less significant role the actress played in the movie "Status: Free". Elizaveta Boyarskaya played the role of a Athens - girls with extremely difficult character. Boyar coped with the task and eclipsed on the screen many.

Igor voynarovsky

Perhaps the most obscure personality in the cast list. Igor regularly starred in various major Russian movies. But he got exclusively minor, and sometimes a cameo role. But in this film he managed to Express themselves fully. Finally he was given enough screen time than it definitely could use. That's just since the actor anywhere else and was not removed.

Danila Kozlovsky

Over the last few years the surprise of many, Danila Kozlovsky became the most highly paid and popular Russian actor. Acting in blockbusters he started ten years ago. But made it recognizable war drama "We are from the future", in which he played a major role. Immediately this was followed by the very successful Comedy "Jolly fellows". But the first serious success, which made Kozlowski's a major movie star, can safely be considered a Comedy "Five brides". What is most remarkable, the main female role performed Boyarsky. Even then, Kozlovsky fully able to prove himself as a terrific comedian. It is now, he starred in serious films like "the Crew" and "Viking". So, in General, that Daniel was the main reason that the "Status: Free" has gained such popularity among mass audience.

Paulina Andreeva

Another rising star, which recently managed to get many notable roles in film and television. It is difficult to believe that more recently, about it almost nobody knew.

Nadezhda Zvenigorodskaya

Despite the fact that he is not the most famous and popular person in Russian cinema, in this particular case it did the job extremely efficiently, even without any special frills.

For more than fifteen years of career he managed to create more than two dozen films. He had a hand in such hits as "country of the deaf", "Hitler kaput!", "Love in the city", "Office romance. Our time" and many others. So he clearly knows a lot about what projects we should undertake. At the moment, "Status: Free" is his latest success. The funny thing is, the list of producers is also featured lead actor - Danila Kozlovsky. Apparently, the talent of this man really endless.

Also pleased and composers, whom the film has gathered as much as three - Alexander Ivanov, Ivan Lubennikov, Oleg Chubykin. They have created some memorable motives, and gave the film a special atmosphere. On the installation worked Alexander Ivanov.
