When a young woman finds herself torn between her seemingly normal life and the alluring promise offered by one of the all-too-human extraterrestrials, the fate of the entire world is left hanging in the balance.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Flick
    Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2024

    Finally watched "Attraction" and it was a breath of fresh air. While Hollywood is obsessed with pushing weird leftist agendas, this Russian film just focuses on telling a good story. Director Bondarchuk delivers exactly what you want in a sci-fi movie - special effects, real tension, and characters that feel genuine rather than checking wokeness boxes.

    The spacecraft crash sequences was fantastic - easily matching any big-budget Hollywood production. But what makes it work is how grounded everything feels. Setting it in Moscow gives us a fresh perspective on the alien invasion genre. The conflict between the locals and the alien visitor hits home because it comes from a natural place rather than feeling forced.

    I grew up on classic sci-fi that put story first. "Attraction" reminds me of that era - it's about the plot, the characters, and the spectacle, nothing more. The romance subplot actually works because it serves the story rather than an unwanted agenda.

    If you're looking for a straightforward sci-fi film that respects its audience while delivering solid entertainment, this is it. I'll definitely check out whatever the director does next.

    4.0 out of 5 stars One star off for conventional storyline - plus 1/2 for good intentions
    Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2020

    It should be quite acceptable to any viewer born after 1990

    The tradition of stories to illuminate the complicated and/or confusing mysteries or puzzles of life goes back at least as far as the written word — probably to pictures on stone walls and ceilings.

    I was not really interested in this movie as an entertainment. I know a lot of stuff because I actually have a really broad education and many decades of contemplation. That said — the only subject I should speak authoritatively on is Science Fiction.

    From the disappointing reviews of industry critics and the ‘trailers’ online I knew pretty much what I was going to see before I watched it.
    My interest was in deconstructing a contemporary sample of ‘mainstream’ Speculative-Fiction from Russia in the context of Anglo-European spec-fi with a smattering of samples from other cultures — stretching from the very last part of the 19th Century to this part of the 21st Century — which I have steeped myself in.

    It is somewhat reassuring to see that cultural conventions and commercialized lackluster writing is found everywhere and in all languages.

    As I am watching this;

    Humans know that meteors are expected but aliens who travel from — elsewhere — are not aware of these and have no standing defense against particulate impacts of any scale, i.e. small moving fast objects are as dangerous as big moving slow object.

    Conventional in a non-offensive way in as much as we see two common adventure tropes early in the first act; 1 - Don’t split up the group. 2 - Don’t get cuddly and start to remove clothing. Don’t we all know these things?

    At this early point, the storyline requires an enormous level of technical suspension of disbelief. Character behavior of the students seems to ignore plausibility. This suggests that the writers are intent on examining and illuminating some aspect of the underlying theme basic to the writers’ agenda at the expense of any other consideration.

    OK. Its a comedy.

    Looks like everyone’s government everywhere suffers from partial brain damage. Consistently, the people who have to actually deal with emergencies, injuries, damage, defense, attack — so, the one’s in the ‘trenches’ — have a better perspective than the man in the street or the man ‘in the tower’ or ‘on the hill’.
    ( a traditionalist, I refrain from discussing the woman in the street because what a female is or does should not be reduced to common discussion whereas men are recognized as subject to more foibles and failings and are, frankly, less valued )

    Its a comedy of errors.

    As with classical myths and parables, the intention is to make gestures and leave signs, clues, if you will, of a possible way out of our situation.

    I will stay away from spoilers but this is a very conventional story — from a ‘non-Atlantic Ocean’ centric perspective — that is reassuring in the values of the creators of the film.

    To this viewer it is on par with all the other retreads of plot lines from the last 25 years or so in terms of production values and technology. It should be quite acceptable to any viewer born after 1990. It is silly in small ways regarding the staging and blocking of movement — presupposing that peripheral characters lack normal perceptions of their surroundings due to convenient plot needs and screen time limitations — pretty much like any other film.
    This bodes well for the entry of Russian sourced cinematic entries into the western media markets. Others have mentioned the viewing experience so I will not do that here.

    I like the over-all message. I was interested in contrasting and comparing various peripheral-to-the-story cultural elements.
    I recommend to any with an interest in Sci-Fi predictions of our possible futures the Niven-Pournelle series surrounding the character John Christian Falkenberg…

    Some days it is as if all of us are walking around in piss-filled shoes — the smell and the squishy sound is not enough to make the current state of affairs clear because everyone is in the same condition.
    So we rely on artists and sages to hold up a mirror — that we might, maybe, see what we actually look like, rather than what we dream.

    So far, whenever ‘delphic oracles’ have given warnings we have not been able to make the most of them…
    This movie is a hope that how we are doing is NOT the best we can do.

    Recommended by me — the critics disparage this effort because it is not new — but very little is.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Movie is very good, but culturally doesn't translate if you're not Russian.
    Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2020

    Movie is very good, but culturally doesn't translate if you're not Russian. I was skeptical. There is a whole wave or new Russian scifi movies that have excellent effects, but lack story and cohesion. This is the first one that didn't make me cringe. Story is very coherent, dialogue is very good, characters have real motivations for what they are doing, even aliens have and underlying purpose in what they do and how they end up where they are (it's actually explained quite well). Effects are expensive and well done. The uniforms, weapons, vehicles, helicopters, planes, and other props look genuine and no expense seemed to be spared. This gives it a feeling of scale (like for example you actually see a few hundred soldiers trying to stop a riot, looks very realistic as opposed to cheesy camera angles where they'd try to make 10 look like a few hundred in other movies)

    Problem is I know for a fact it does not translate to western audiences. Cultures are too different, and I say this as someone living in US for nearly 30 years, but I'm fluent in Russian. Basically you have to speak Russian to understand the jokes, to feel the acting. Jokes by the way are quite good in this movie, made me laugh many times, which is kind of sad as it would take a while to explain to my English speaking friends even if I tried (I nearly lost it laughing when alien met girl's grandma and said "Too old, need to put down (to sleep)" after girl said the same thing about their dog that was getting old and suffering a few minutes earlier. Grandma's reaction is criticism of this young generation and how people used to be nicer).

    Acting is top notch. For example Artem who ends up being the bad guy, so much energy and vitality in him. He's such a great person in the beginning, so passionate and protective about his girlfriend. Like a role model for what men and born leaders should be (although with a youthful rebellious streak, but in a kind way). Reminds me of Chris Pine in Star Trek reboots, younger version of Cpt. Kirk. After trying to help one of the soldiers, trying to do the right thing turning in alien suit, and soldier not standing up for him after (this made him feel anger and injustice directed at authority), then seeing how he is losing his girlfriend, turned him into a bad guy in the end. Artem's character has a journey, that makes him change drastically, and there are cohesive motivations and events that lead up to that change. Though as I said before, unless you have experience with Russian culture, his character might seem weird and some nuances and motivations might be lost in translation.

    Anyway, great movie. Enjoyed it a lot.

    ctte première partie nous fait découvrir des jeunes leur vie leur psychologie pour bien les comprendre.

    et voilà un vaisseau Aliéne qui s'crase sur la ville. des effets spéciaux à couper le souffle. Et on voit Julia prête a tout pour venger la mort de son amie. on la voit évoluer quand elle rencontre l'extra terrrstre. qui ne la laisse pas indifférente. s'ensuit la haine de son petit ami jaloux de ce retournement se situation. on regarde avec passion le changement profond qui passe de la haine à l'amour bien improbable.. Absolument pas cul cul ni mielleux. Tout simplement vrai comme dans la vie réelle. Je n'en dit pas plus.

    on a simplement envie de voir comment tout cet environnement va finir. il faut voir le 1 avant le 2 car c'est une suite logique et bien faite. Je dis bravo à ces acteurs qui jouent justes et bien ce qui nous pousse a savoir absolument la fin. De très bons effets spéciaux. Je ne connaissais pas trop les films Russes maisd force est de constater qu'ils n'ont rien a envier aux autres films de SF (sauf peut-être AVATAR. nous avons passé un excellent moment en visionnant ce film qui est passé à une vitesse folle.

    El pedido llegó muy rápido y debidamente protegido.

    Soy coleccionista de películas, me gustan mucho géneros, en especial las de Ciencia Ficción. Precisamente llevo bastante tiempo buscando esta pelicula en su versión Español-Castellana, pero las opciones disponibles son únicamente en Ruso, Alemán, Frances y Ingles*. No hay versión en Español, ni hay información que vayamos a tenerla.

    Curiosamente si existe versión es español en plataformas en streaming de video (Amazon Prime Video la tuvo en su momento), pero no la tenemos en edición física.

    Como detalle indicar que hay existe la continuación de esta pelicula "ATTRACTTION II: Invasión". En este caso ocurre lo mismo con los idiomas disponibles en la edición física.

    El titulo original de esta pelicula es Pritiazhenie, que comercialmente se llama ATTRACTION

    * No le doy las 5 estrellas porque no dispone de idioma en español, siendo una pelicula de 2017, que en su versión Streaming oficial si hay opción del idioma español.
