If I were in such a camp, I would definitely experience horror. This is not like sitting on the couch, drinking tea, watching and admiring vampires. The atmosphere is certainly creepy, completely incomparable with my memories of the children's camp.

And what about the movie? More precisely, the history... The plot is based on the novel of the same name, so it is unfair to judge the creators by the criterion of "interesting". Here everyone has their own - who likes what. I liked the performance and the acting of actors who are so young, which only gives them a head start for such an "immersion". And I would like to highlight in a special way Fyodor Fedoseev, who played the role of Levka Khlopov. He played great! And of course, a loving Whistler (Irina Pegova)!

There was not enough "catchy factor" in the series. It's as if the film was glued together from a variety of storylines and scenes that seem incoherent to me personally. The stories of the scenes are cut off one after another and there is a feeling of understatement. And this is the main reproach to the director's work - I wanted to make everything bigger and more spectacular, but it turned out to be a pile-up, from which you lose all passion from watching from series to series. There was not a single (!) moment in which I would have a feeling of empathy for the hero. Just as there was no feeling of empathy for Valery Lagunov, who, thanks to the screenwriters, turned out to be a controversial character. He turned out to be very "different", although the boy, as an actor, is talented!

But the most destructive effect on the film was the lack of a clear genre. As I wrote above, the creators decided to stuff the series with everything they can. Mysticism, black humor, a lot of emphasized erotic scenes, flashbacks to the revolutionary past, chaotic love ties and a series of awkward moments in dialogues, for which even, as a viewer, "in Spanish, it's a shame". Therefore, in order to perceive this tape more fully, it is necessary to at least read the book version of the novel.

But if we talk about the visual component ,then "Food Block" is undoubtedly a breakthrough in Russian cinema! Beautiful camerawork technique, dynamic shots and even dialogues have finally learned to dilute the secondary actions of the characters. Sound effects also perfectly complement the atmosphere. Here everything would seem to be there to create a high-quality movie, but once again the embodiment fails.

It will be interesting to watch such a series rather only in the company of friends - after all, there are topics that you want to talk about, evaluate jokes, but it's unlikely about "being scared". Alas, I didn't have a decent aftertaste after watching it personally. Perhaps someone" Food Department " went more than me! At least, the moral messages in it are very strong. And at least for this one thing, you can say Thank you to the creators!

No, it's not a horror movie. It's much more than that. This is a story about the horrors that have been happening for at least the last decade in our world. The hero of the story is not without reason an autistic boy, for whom it is so important to find friends. Real friends... But it sometimes becomes easier for parents, that is, adults, to deceive and make it so that they do not cause themselves unnecessary "inconveniences". It is better to let the son use the phone and look for friends there. It's calmer this way.

The film is filled with allegories and metaphors every minute, surprisingly turning a horror story into a message to all viewers. Who is on the other side of the screen under the mysterious name of Larry? Everyone will surely be able to easily understand that this is a prototype of our being, woven according to the formula "loneliness among the crowd"... We are not afraid of him, because we have long been accustomed to his constant presence. For the boy, this state of affairs is terrifying. But does he have a choice? And can he fight back against the yawning funnel of the nightmare? The plot develops very unpredictably and puts adults in front of a choice every time. Are they ready to sacrifice their comfortable lifestyle for the sake of the interests of children? And in general, is it possible to answer the question with confidence today, what is real parental love? I hope that many will agree that this is not only a warm house with upholstered furniture and toys, as well as a new smartphone. Love can't be material, after all.

After watching this film, you can perceive the plot in different ways, up to the recognition that all these incredible scenes are just a kind of perception by a boy with special features of development of a very real story from the life of the family. Then the ending takes on a completely different meaning...

I recommend it to fans of mystical stories with meaning. To someone, perhaps this tape will remind you of the movie "Others" with Nicole Kidman by its nature. Not so much the plot, but the atmosphere.

A drama about teenagers and their difficulties. . . At the center of the story are two friends whose relationships are under the gun of their peers due to ethnic tensions. In an instant, an insidious fate challenges them. And despite everything, the guys remain loyal to each other. .. The film was shot in the manner of Northern European culture and everyday life. This is rather an analysis of reality with its current vices and, let's hope, its surviving prejudices.
