Film: THE DEATH OF STALIN

OMG! OMG! OMG!

You have run out and see/rent/stream this hilarious film about the death of Stalin in Russia! I don't know where to begin. It is part Blazing Saddles meets Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy meets Borat.

I streamed it for free last night on 123movies dot to and I'm going to see it again today because I missed so many funny lines because the came so furiously one after another.

OP you should have mentioned Armando Iannucci's involvement in the film and that Michael Palin has a role! I saw the trailer anyway, I know I'll be laughing whenever I hear gunshots. I also like that nobody's going to the trouble of adopting a foreign accent -- Brits sound British, Americans sound American.

I would love if Liza had a vlog where she reviewed the latest films.

Fortunately r3, she would have no idea how to post it.

Haven't seen it but I thought the previews looked pretty good.

Perhaps it should be seen in conjunction with "Children of the Revolution", where Stalin "F. Murray Abraham" has an illegitimate son with Australian communist groupie Judy Davis.

Things I thought I’d never say, but Jason Isaacs as Marshall Zhukov is hilarious. The Kremlin hates this movie, I believe it’s been banned in Russia, so see it just to piss off Putin.

I don’t know much about Soviet Union history...

Too bad Ben Affleck doesn't star. I feel he's the only one who should play Stalin.

I saw the trailer which was hilarious. It’s having a regular theatrical release, isn’t it?

Very dryly witty, and excellent cinematography.

Whatshisname from star Trek is HOT as the wacky general.
