The Express (Russian: Экспресс, romanized: Ekspress) is a 2022 Russian crime comedy-drama film directed by Ruslan Bratov.[1]

Plot

Sasha Soslanov, nicknamed Sos, a charming gouging from the Caucasian province, finds himself in the blackest period of his life. But even when he is expelled from the university, and his beloved Nina leaves for Moscow, he does not lose heart, but goes to the bookmaker's office and makes a desperate bet of several events for the last thousand rubles express (accumulator bet). An incredible combination of circumstances makes him the owner of a big win. That's just the card he loses.

Reception

Box office

The Express has grossed US$132 108.[2]

Critical response

Vadim Bogdanov from InterMedia gave the film 8 out of 10, noting the good acting and views of the North Caucasus.[3]

According to Zinaida Pronchenko, Bratov's romanticization of hopelessness is not opposed by a timid guess at all: what if, in the territory called the Russian Federation, life has as many chances to play as death.[4]

As Vasily Stepanov notes, it is immersed in the local context, made from the beginning to the end of the movie.[5]
