Reviews
Sometimes, you just can't beat the Russians at anything. This movie is perfect. The sets and production are off the charts. The directing is phenomenal. The acting is flawless. Okay, the story is maybe a little plain, nonetheless, it's enjoyable to watch. THIS is a Christmas movie - not that crap Hollywood does these days.
