I just watched it last night. I thought it was a pretty incredible film conceptually and visually.

I can also understand its purchase in the West, as I feel like it glorifies pre-USSR imperial Russia, and there are only thin references to anything in the 20th century (the most notable and darkly trippy of these being the soldier digging his own grave during the siege of Leningrad).

I liked it!

Technically the first one that I ever saw in terms of Russian film.

It's... honestly better than most Hollywood films, as trite as that sounds. Believe me, I wasn't expecting much, but I... oddly liked it. It was something different and I liked it a lot.
