This documentary is outstanding on every level - director Chris Smith introduces the viewer to life of Michael Ruppert but that is only the surface. Ruppert's view of the modern world and its tendencies is somewhat unique, considering the public mainstream opinions about everything and everyone. He analyzes issues that are relevant at this point and links them all together. It creates a devastating prospect. Ruppert is nervous, his eyes make him look like a lost puppy, eagerly smoking one cigarette after another. But who wouldn't be lost in his place? He has seen the future and the effects of that make him look like a crackpot. The title of the movie could be referable to Michael, our way of thinking not only the world system itself. Chris Smith has done some great job, making the film visually enjoyable by interrogating Ruppert in a dark bunker and adding captivating visual material. We are heading towards end of the world and our lifestyle as we know it. If you are able to grasp that at least after seeing this documentary, better fasten your seat-belt for a bumpy ride, if you are not able to do that - enjoy this dwindling era of oil as much as you can cause there is no really much time left to do that.

A must-see for those who want to know. TO KNOW. For those who are seeking the truth like Neo. For those who think that ignorance is a bliss, better skip this and watch some American Idol-like show. Seriously.

Some flicks just stay on your mind for the rest of your life. When i saw TTRL for the first time it seemed to me that it is just a good war movie but this was a deceptive feeling. Something started to be different. In lenght of time i realized that i need to see this once more. Then once more. Later some scenes once more. Some flicks are just meant for watching more than once. This movie is not only about words or some dialogs. A dying soldier covered with blood combined with an outstanding view of nature brightly describes the dualism of this unique movie that could be made like this only from director Terrence Malick. You shouldn't avoid this even if you hate war movies because TTRL is largely philosophical. One of the most influential picture movies i have ever seen. A must-see for collectors and fans of war flicks.

First, i must say that I really enjoyed watching the Bumer. It was an interesting and original experience of Russian cinema. In short, it's one of the best movies from Russia I have ever seen (the other one for me could be 9-ya rota so far). Therefore I went to cinema with high expectations. After watching this flick of Buslov there was not a frustration, but i realized that sequel did not manage to achieve the superb level of its predecessor. More or less this was completely another kind of story. Of course, there is a strong connection with events of the first film, though you are free to watch it even if you have not seen the first Bumer. It's not a flawless movie. There were several short disturbing ''black breaks'', which made Bumer: Film vtoroy a bit spotty. Also this made the plot scattered. One excellent thing about this is soundtrack. It's truly outstanding. With scenes of todays Russia, witty dialogs, tragicomic story - it is a good movie and a must-see for fans of Bumer, although some of them may be disappointed.
