Good start, but then it gets ruined

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

The gentleman from Canada in his review pointed that this film may be of interest to the Slavs. I happen to be of Slavic culture and obviously read Gogol in original, but to me this film is simply an atrocious adaptation attempt. You'll be better served by a 1961 version of Gogol's novel. This one is simply a sub-product of overbearing c-grade pop culture, loaded with bad acting, inferior directing skills and underlined by incoherent script. While there have been a few examples of talented adaptations on Putin-controlled television, this is not one of those. You'll have much better December 31 if you skip this vulgar nonsense in all entirety. However, if you have had a kilo of vodka by mid-afternoon, hit that play button, it might merge well with deep intoxication. After all this was the intended audience for this opus. Philip Kirkorov in Gogol's novel? Hey, this definitely caused the classic to turn in his grave.

I've seen this the night it came out, The New Year's Eve and it was, well...interesting. I mean, I knew the story it had followed and though I wouldn't say it was accurate it was still pretty good. The singers they chose were fabulous and it incredibly amusing to watch Fillip play a devil because he turned out to be a great one. Most of the songs were very good and I vowed to find them someday but there were some that were quite unemotional and, in fact, boring. But in overall, this is worth a check and it may bring some entertainment to you. Still, it's best to watch on the 31st of December rather than any other time of year. Gives you "the" feeling. Worth a check. (I very very much doubt there is even a version with subtitles though)
