Title: Too Slow and No Real Plot
Review: I was very disappointed in this movie. Many, many of the scenes are way too long with no action or even narration. For example, there is one scene where the boy is looking out the door of a box car as the train is moving - and all you see are the trees and fields going by. Also, the story is very weak, if, indeed there is even a real story there. To me it was just a collection of encounters with various people along the way. The only reason I can see for one to watch this movie would be to get some glimpse of how the people live in Russia and the old Soviet Union.
