I love thrillers and horrors and mysteries but I had no interest in watching this movie because it looked like trash. However, Ask Me Anything's thought-provoking Discussion spurred my interest. As I feared though, this movie is indeed trash, not because the antagonist is a psychopath who mirrors the bigoted, anti-VAX, anti-establishment, pro-Trump lunatics who preach daily about their right to bear arms, share their racist views and hate on women like a bunch of toxic, self-hating, closeted gay men, but because the movie is simply boring. We've always had psychopaths whining about how they're The Reel Victims™ in movies. It's not hard to make a lunatic compelling, even one as nonsensical as the one portrayed here. This movie simply fails to do it. There's nothing "decent" here except maybe the premise, which ain't exactly original. If you're looking for a decent movie set in one location, try The Last Stop in Yuma County (2024). It was less trash than this. If you're looking for a fun political movie where a centrist gives a far-left loony their comeuppance, check out The Hunt (2020). I gave it an 8/10, while one of TMDB's many resident bigots gave it a whole 10/10, which goes to show that bigots are only whiny snowflakes when they're forced to look in a mirror. They're actually quite fine with political movies that support their delusional conspiracy theories. It's sad that movie reviews are now a political battlefield where we complain about human beings as though they're not real. "When in Rome", I suppose. I'm sure there's a corrupt politician out there somewhere enjoying our little nonsensical squabbles.

Yet, even within their central territories, some areas refused to bow to the Genghisids. Kozelsk was one of them.

Now, the people of Kozelsk must face a battle against the strongest army in the world, with no hope of victory. This is a story about people facing their death.
