Synopsis
A Movie About Bandits (2023) is a Russian crime comedy you can watch online on iFILM. After fifteen years behind bars, ex-gang boss Gavr walks free with a single plan: to shoot an honest film about men like himself.
Back in the day Gavr ran the organized crime scene of a small provincial town. Now he rounds up his old crew — grumpy cab driver Belyash and rent-a-cop Kolyan — and throws himself into moviemaking. The catch is simple: none of them knows the first thing about cinema, but they know plenty about settling scores their own way. When the hired actor starts acting up, the bandits do what comes naturally and take him hostage to keep the cameras rolling. Mikhail Porechenkov, Dmitry Nagiev and Stanislav Duzhnikov lead the cast.
The humor is rough around the edges, soaked in nostalgia for the rowdy nineties and aimed squarely at the gangster-flick genre it pokes fun at. If you liked stories about hardened crooks fumbling through a peaceful new trade, this one lands. Stream A Movie About Bandits online on iFILM.
