4.0 out of 5 stars A fine, stunning film, 3 Mar 2005
By Stephen Newton "www.stephennewton.com" (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The Return is a stunning yet bleak world, with many loose ends. The brother's perspective on an inexplicably absent father's sudden return, builds a picture of opposite reactions to his reassuming authority. Yet while hints are dropped, the usually crucial questions - why leave, why return - remain unasked. And what did mother know?

4.0 out of 5 stars Russia cinema is alive and well, 26 Jul 2006
By Ellie (Wheathampstead, Herts) - See all my reviews
Beautiful landscapes, attractive actors (all!) and a story that graps you after 10 minutes. Not very much action though, and not many words either, but this is not art for arts sake - it made me feel like I was there. No happy tied-up endings and the story is full of loose ends too but the feeling of humans moving through a landscape is quite exceptional! The children are amazing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Brothers and a Father, 10 April 2005
A fine addition to the corpus of Russian cinema, this film charts a week in the life of two brothers whose father returns after an absence of twelve years and takes them on a fishing trip - or is it? The actors playing the brothers are excellent, the cinematography superb - although not a great deal happens, I was kept enthralled by the performances and bleak Baltic landscapes. Definitely one to see - if you're a fan of the Russians!
