After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

"Krokodil Gena" is a Soviet 20-minute animated movie by Roman Kachanov, the man behind the Cheburashka short films, a classic from the Golden Age of East European animation. This one still features a different title character, but this does not make it a worse watch at all in my opinion. I personally think it is on par with the sequels. The animation is not entirely my preferred choice of style, but it isn't bad either. If you like the style more than I do, you will probably really love this little film. There are some cute characters and scenes in here and the story generally has a decent amount of heart in it. Of course, if your mother tongue is not Russian, you may want to make sure you get a good set of subtitles. Watch it. I am positive you won't be disappointed.
