Review of The Russia House (1990) by Stcenterprise . — 29 Mar 2012

I like the score by Jerry Goldsmith. I would have liked to have heard more variety beside on theme threw out the film. The film got kind of boring. It was kind of confusing because the film was edited in such a way that the information was given to the audience incomplete and would be given out of order. It became confusing as to what the film was about as far as what the CIA and British intelligence were really after. Luckily at the end there is an explanation with all the answers revealed. I think that the film could have done a better job of defining particular aspects to the audience sooner because it lost the interest of the audience because they may have gotten confused by the meaning of the film.

One thing that kept me watching the film was the cinematography. The way in which Communist Russia is shot is terrific. They show a lot of Russiaâ(TM)s great locations with wide shots that are enjoyable to see.

The film has great known actors like Sean Connery, John Mahoney, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Roy Scheider.
