Critic Reviews of "The 9th Company"
Time OutFebruary 14, 2007The unquestioning lionising of Russian heroism is far from comfortable viewing, especially given the Putin regime's darkening human rights record.
WBAI RadioAugust 14, 2010So is the director's beef with the barefoot belligerent fundamentalist Afghans or the beefy bungling brass of the Soviet Union? Less likely any of the above, than a battle of the blockbusters showdown with Hollywood, as to whose got the bigger bull-ets.
Sunday Times (UK)February 19, 2007The characters are given life by the script and actors, while the mountainous terrain (provided by Crimea) adds novelty to the combat scenes.
Times (UK)February 16, 2007Tells a familiar story very well, thanks to a charismatic ensemble cast and boundless ambition when it comes to the scale.
thelondonpaperFebruary 16, 2007It may not be a new subject but, as an update on bellicose jingoism, it's just right.
Daily Telegraph (UK)February 16, 2007It's beautifully shot and includes bravura set pieces from the front line. Unsurprisingly, it ends badly.
London Evening StandardFebruary 16, 2007It's all beautifully photographed and lit, using a bright palette that recalls old Technicolor, and exerts a cumulative power over its 130 minutes.
Independent (UK)February 16, 2007The film has no real thematic ambition beyond restating the old "war is hell" adage.
GuardianFebruary 16, 2007Americanised macho-sentimental war movie about an isolated Soviet division.
The Sun (UK)February 16, 2007To a man, the movie's impressive young Russian cast cover themselves in glory with some truly top-notch turns.
Daily Mirror (UK)February 16, 2007With what's going on in Afghanistan today, 9th Company is nothing if not timely.
