Review
A ruthlessly efficient, thinking person's action film that sometimes goes over the top but has a great time going there. It's the story of two sets of brothers (Cossacks and Gypsies) in the early 1800s who cross paths in bloody conflict and, like Clint Eastwood's Flags of Our Fathers and Letters from Iwo Jima, tells the tale from both sides, eliciting empathy for each. How it all happens in under 90 minutes is a wonder to behold.
The first part of the story (titled "Us") is from the Cossacks' perspective. The identification as "Us" makes sense as these brothers are ostensibly the civilized ones, but the original title of the movie (Voleurs de Chevaux aka Horse Thieves) suggests that the true protagonists are on the other side. In any case, the two brothers Jakub and Vladi decide to sign up with the vicious Cossacks as they're sick of being hungry, and at least get a square meal from the marauders. But their initiation is brutal, as are their battles with the "enemy," resulting in a tragic loss.
