Not smashing


Icebreaker (2016)

Directed by Nikolay Khomeriki this film based on real events stars Pyotr Fyodorov, Sergei Puskepalis and Aleksandr Pal. In 1985 a Russian icebreaker becomes trapped in the ice.

A mix of Soviet era politics and disaster film this is a bit of a tepid effort. On screen events never really rise to a level of high tension that will put you on the edge of your seat. It is hard to say how accurate the film is to real events but the film is at least mildly entertaining.

3/5
