Rating: - Archangel is named after the Archangel Michael the Angel of War
The city of Archangel was named by Peter the Great (who ordered its' construction) for the Angel who fights at Gd's right hand against Satan. It was to be Russia's naval base on the Arctic Sea, and was the home of the USSR's nuclear submarine fleet during the Cold War. All this has nothing to do with the movie!
The movie, which is written and filmed by Russians, is a commentary on the loss of power and prestige after the death of Stalin (apres moi le deluge). Except for Krushchev, ... Read More
Rating:  - The Angel Gene
Archangel is the name of a city in a northern province of the same name in Russia. Once the chief seaport of medieval Russia, its population has been decreasing; now at under 400,000. The city was taken by the Russians from the Norwegians during the 15th century. Sometime in the year 2005, close to the city, in the woods, lives the long forgotten son of Joseph Stalin.
Finding him, and possibly bringing this son of the "man of steel" to lead the Russian people raises interesting questions. ... Read More
Rating: - Until the Final Gun Explodes
Jon Jones' second feature (after an obscure "When I'm 64") is a tense thriller. Jones does a good job with pacing and benefits from excellent cinematography. The screenplay is by the writing team Ian LaFrenais and Dick Clement who recently wrote Across the Universe (Two-Disc Special Edition) and have "Bank Job" with Jason Statham due for release. La Frenais won the British Academy Award for writing for "The Commitments" in 1992.
Daniel Craig portrays historian Fluke Kelso who is presented ... Read More
Rating: - Stalin .... a mad man that the world has never seen before or since
Russian history enthusiasts will love this film. This movie made me wonder about the story of the USSR and the rise of Josef Stalin. Unlike other notorious world leaders, Stalin (the focus of this tale) was more ruthless and murderous than any of the other infamous dictators in history combined. A fearsome threat to his own people as well as the world, even the USA, Great Britan, France and the WW-II allies feared taking action against Stalin and instead fought with him against Hitler and Germany. Stalin ... Read More
Rating: - A fine made-for-TV British thriller starring Daniel Craig, based on the even finer novel by Robert Harris
If movie thrillers can be thoughtful, literate and exciting -- and with no computer-created mega-explosions -- this fine British TV adaptation of the Robert Harris novel does the job. Archangel stars Daniel Craig and was made before Craig hit the big time as James Bond. Without the Bond fervor, this little-known film might never have been released on DVD. It tells the story of British professor Fluke Kelso (Craig), a middle-aged man who had made a name for himself with impeccable research on Soviet history, ... Read More
