¤ But it's almost one-to-one with "Argument" in terms of timing and budget, funny ... ¤
Brief review of the movie. I will try without spoilers. But those who have already watched the film will quickly understand what it is about;] What kind of people I'm talking about. And who has not looked, he will not understand and therefore this will not be a spoiler. So...
A good lesson is taught in this film: the ability to put the needs of society and people above their desires, to sacrifice personal happiness for the benefit of general well-being.
The Stone of Desires fulfills the desired, but also takes the price for the fulfilled, anything can act as the price. For example, health, positive character traits, property and influence, etc. An insidious stone that destroyed civilization and was about to destroy the current one, in 1984, to be more precise.
Naturally, if you want to become the president of a country, get your empire back for yourself, rule over an artificial state with fairy-tale characters, there will be consequences that you cannot calculate in advance, or do not want to think about it before making a wish, and this is perfectly shown in film. Yes, the film is a fairy tale in a sense, but this film is based on the DC universe, where there is magic. And the Wish Stone uses magic to do things. That is, you should not try to understand what and how it is, there is just magic, period;]
The point is just in an important life lesson, well, just like from a typical episode of "My Little Pony") I wished for something, saw the consequences, decided to fix it them, refusal of desire - this is the only way to reverse the negative consequences of your wishes.
But HOW do you not want to give up superpower, from the returned loved one, from wealth, etc.! This is where the true essence of your soul is tested: what are you worth as an intelligent person. Will you follow the lead of life's temptations, or overcome them and do what you have to do. Do not what you want to do, but do what you need to do. And what the world needs. It seems to me that here the film did an excellent job of demonstrating the essence of this life lesson. Everything else is already secondary, only complements the plot.
What are your opinions on the film?
From an action point of view, I liked the first Chudobaba movie more. But it is in this film that there is a more important message. It happens.
By the way, he said the phrase "Nothing good can be built on a lie." The irony, however, is that many empires in the history of mankind were built on lies to one degree or another, and even now the world is full of lies. It would be especially good for the Americans themselves to learn this truth first of all. And first of all, in what “democracy†really is, because it seems that they have already forgotten what one of their first presidents said;] Namely (the phrase may not be entirely accurate): “Democracy is when free and armed white men meet and agree ") Super ...;] So, by the way. The phrase (Chudobaby) is beautiful, the truth is important, no doubt. It would be nice for * everyone * in the world to learn this ...
PS
At 2-26 (2 hours and 26 minutes) there is a small final scene)

Like this version, there is nothing in common with the old, classic, only the names are similar.
It's too feminine and too silly. Boring, drawn-out, Galya as an actress, well, just a birch log, this monologue at the end, which, according to the idea, was supposed to evoke some kind of response, did not cause anything but the thought: what are you, you fool, are you talking about nonsense, huh? ! They leaked the cheetah, and so ineptly that the question arises, why the hell did she take so much screen time on herself?
And I also didn't like that all people's desires were so simple and down-to-earth. Here is a real cattle, a selective cattle, apparently this is the director's ideas about his target audience. No one asked for anything interesting, no one wanted to populate the world with fairies, turn into a dragon, teach trees to walk, summon Cthulhu, but this was natural. A certain character tells you that he will fulfill any desire, what are your actions? What, blindly believe him and ask for a lemon for euro in small bills? Yes, the fig swam there, you decide that he is crazy and try to play along, asking, say, to create another race on earth, centaurs. Well, just like that, for fun, because he is crazy and he cannot. And in the cinema, everyone on serious shchschah immediately begins, more dough, a longer gun, a bundle of rockets, a drum on the neck, a feather in the ass and into the tunnel, towards the train :) It's boring, it feels like

Exactly, leaked) The "Justice League" cartoon series: there Cheetah regularly appears in various episodes, not a one-time villain. And here for one time: a couple of minutes of screen time and the end of her super-power. Sadness.

As if not really? 8)
Remember the X-Files series? In one episode, the genie was discovered, she fulfilled three wishes. The first wish of a very intelligent and educated person (Mulder)? "Peace on Earth"! ^ _ ^ Is it naive? But for him it is so natural, how obvious the desire is, that he did not even think about it. There is nothing strange about this.
In addition, how do you see the option that in a film for a couple of minutes of screen time, when they show what people are asking about, to show the desires of millions? Millions of options for desires! This is unrealistic. They showed a particle, a grain of sand ...

Her, centaurs are not cute, better than colorful intelligent ponies, lol))
or an older version, well, with weapons, etc.) For the original is so-so, but with guns it's cool 8)
