Spect.

Opinions on 'The Wizard of Kremlin' are mixed, with many praising its deep dive into the political machinations of post-USSR Russia and the standout performances of Paul Dano and Jude Law. However, the film's length and dense dialogue have been points of contention, making it a challenging watch for some. The narrative's complexity and historical depth intrigued many, yet others found it overly verbose and slow-paced.

👍 Stellar performances by Paul Dano and Jude Law.

👎 May feel too long and overly complex for some viewers.

Russia, in the early 1990’s is the aftermath of the USSR’s collapse. In a new world that promises freedom and flirts with chaos, a young artist-turned-TV producer, Vadim Baranov, unexpectedly becomes the spin doctor of a promising member of the FSB (ex-KGB), Vladimir Putin.

Fiction bien documentée pour comprendre l’ascension au pouvoir de Poutine. Malgré quelques longueurs, le film captive notamment grâce à un excellent Paul Dano.
