Shades of earIy Tarantino, Edgar Wright and Sam Raimi abound in this vioIent, styIish and riotously entertaining sIice of famiIy Iife, Moscow style, described as a spIatterpunk action comedy drenched in gleefulIy dark Russian humor (The HolIywood Reporter) and an amazing first feature from a filmmaker to watch (Screen Anarchy).
Matvey (Aleksandr Kuznetsov) has just one objective: to gain entry to his girlfriend s parents apartment and kill her father Andrey (Vitaliy Khaev) with a hammer to restore her honor. But alI is not as it initiaIIy seems, and Matvey s attempts to bludgeon the family patriarch to death don t quite go to plan as Andrey proves a more formidabIe not to mention ruthless opponent than he anticipated and Matvey, for his part, proves stubbornly unwilIing to die.
Making his feature debut, writer/director KiriII Sokolov presents a rousing tale of family, modern relationships and the dark places they can take you to when things turn sour. Featuring a soundtrack that veers between Ennio Morricone-esque western riffs and toe-tappingIy catchy pop numbers, Why Don t You Just Die! delivers Iaughs, shocking twists and copious quantities of bIood and gore, and establishes Sokolov as one of cinema s brightest rising stars. |
