My wife reminded me, and she refused to watch it again. I am more forgetful, so I decided to do it on my own, and so far I am recalling it as I am going.

In general I have serious problems with the Russian war films - they are not much than the most shameful propaganda. Their regime keeps milking the war theme, as they have nothing else to grab on. Furthermore, this movie is only very loosely based on the book - as stated... I can't really compare the two, but I suspect the term "artistic freedom" was pushed to its limit... considering the source of the production - the Putin Channel.
