Arseny Syuhin’s screenplay is catchy. He starts off the story slowly showing the victim and the contract killer’s conversation. But later he kicks-off when the victim starts hunting for the killers.

Vladimir Titov’s act is awesome. Not only the victim, but the audiences will feel sympathy for him in the first half of the movie. But the later part, he turns out to be equally energetic. His looks, stylisation and the action are all sheer class!

Sergei Gorbunov act again is convincing. He does create a scary impression of his in the 1st half of the movie. Later, obviously as things don’t turn out be as they were planned, Sergei does full justice to that part as well.

Others also lend a marvelous support.
