Dead Man's Bluff

2005 · 111 min

A viciously funny, casually brutal crime ride through chaotic 1990s Russia, where every conversation could end in a bullet.

Tagline: Who says crime doesn't pay?
Overview: Sergei and Simon have to deliver a suitcase full of heroin to Mikhalych or else they will be killed. There is one minor detail: the only problem-solving technique they are familiar with is a shot in the head.
How it feels: Dark, satirical, cynical and absurd. Brisk and needs your attention.
About: Crime, violence, corruption, greed
Content: Strong violence, gore and language. Mild sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
