Moscow Noir (2018)

Stereotypes galore

[5/10 · 11 September 2020]

Not a cookie-cutter politically correct Nordic noir. The plot is illogical, the story has holes the size of Jupiter in it and acting is often terrible. The show is full of stereotypes:

• Drinking samogon like apple juice.
• Balalaikas on the wall. Come on guys :)
• Many more ... skipped to avoid spoilers

Besides that:

• Neftnik is a strange name for a Russian company.
• Blixem travels on his USSR passport?! Really?
• The whole conductor story is just weird.
• Space dogs? Why?

I actually enjoyed watching it although it is mediocre.
