    I will try to correct the current mistakes in the future and release a better and better film. And I hope that the administrators will allow it to be posted.

    Go for it, Vladimir! Let me know if there is a new work on the subject of this site, and I will publish it.

    The action worked, but not completely, only the final fight is good, the rest are so-so.

    Glad you liked the final fight. There were two masters of sports, one of international class (whom they finally won), both prize-winners of international competitions. Therefore, the battle was probably a success. The rest of the guys are amateurs, if not beginners.

    Very nice, Vladimir!
    Without criticism there is no growth, I respect the work of other people, so I always try to criticize tactfully, without hurting my dignity and pride. Sometimes it turns out tough, but fair. It was possible to convey the action and the state of tension, but it’s not “catchy”: you don’t wait for what will happen next, you don’t worry about the characters, but you constantly catch yourself thinking about the implausibility of the pretense of what’s happening. Until the last fight, a lot of illogicality in the staging of the fight scenes was striking (from boys’ showdowns you expect street techniques and techniques, not Hollywood). For example, the scene when they bend over someone who is lying down, put them in a chokehold and lift them up; they finish off in the style of MK “Finish Him!”, it’s unclear how they use nuntyaks, when running towards each other they arrange a shootout with dodging bullets Neo Vs Smith - a lot of things.
    At the same time, the film contains a series of very interesting, successful and well-shot decisions that cannot but please.
    The main thing is that my comment doesn’t leave the impression of “he’s getting smart, try it yourself and take a better picture”
    I am sincerely confident that with your potential and attitude, you will be producing wonderful competitive productions in the very near future!
    I wish you creative success, to grow and delight us with new stories!
    Thank you, best regards,
    Alexey

    Greetings) I directed the film. Thank you for your comments and feedback. The purpose of the film was to show action. Learn to remove it and express yourself. The goal was not to put any meaning into this short film, which is what I wrote in the summary. So the action seemed to work. I didn't expect anything more. It's very nice that people are watching the video. Thank you.

    Add artistic expressiveness, a bit of semantic load, remove all the ridiculous body movements (literally filling the frame) when shooting/working with guns and you’ll get a good job.
    IMHO, recreating the “boys’ showdown” with borrowings from “The Matrix” and “Mortal Kombat” is not a good idea, because I'm absolutely ruining the whole atmosphere. Plus, there was a residue of glued cuts, rather than a coherent narrative.
    In general, the director's talent is visible, but it requires a long and diligent polishing. It would be interesting to listen to the opinion of the director himself: what was planned and what didn’t work out, what was the goal of the filming, etc.

    When one young composer played his composition for Shostakovich, Shostakovich was silent for a long time, did not react in any way, and drummed his fingers in his own manner. The young composer finally asked: “Well? This is good?" Shostakovich replied: “Darling, good... Much better than drinking vodka.” ))))

    The final fight is very good, but the rest are very poorly staged.
