Белый тигр
The White Tiger (Belyy tigr) is a 2012 Russian movie by Karen Shakhnazarov. The story takes place in the end of World War II. The Soviet tanker Ivan Naydenov (Aleksey Vertkov) barely survived a battle with a mysterious ghostly-white German Tiger tank. Even though he suffers 3rd degree burns over 90% his body he miraculously awakens the next day completely healed. He has a link to tanks as if they were living creatures. Now his only goal is to destroy the seemingly supernatural white Tiger.

And suddenly there was war
We didn’t remember it
A long time forgotten
There suddenly was war
And suddenly there was war
Our children are dead
Burnt in the ruins
That were left by war
War
And suddenly there was war
And the mothers they screamed
For revenge and reprisals
For another war
And suddenly
And suddenly
And suddenly there was war
With spoiling and death
And you fight alone
If there’s another war
Whole life is war
And whole life is pain
And you will fight alone
In your personal war
War
This is war
War
Wave the flags
as they march off to war.
The body bag count
doesn’t matter anymore.
How quickly we become uncivilized when the dirt kicked
is kicked in our eyes.
A world away they drop bombs
while back at home
every car has a flag sticker on.
And they sing patriotic songs.
And no one knows
what’s really going on.
Open your eyes.
They’re killing kids.
We’re supposed to be the better man. We’re doing the same things they did. We bomb a wedding,
we bomb our allies,
we bomb and we bomb.
Let the bombs decide!
Let the bombs decide.
Don’t get me wrong,
I love my country.
But killing innocent people is something I don’t want to see.
Would it be so easy
to turn the other cheek,
if the kids that were dying lived just down the street.
Open your eyes.
They’re killing kids.
We’re supposed to be the better man. We’re doing the same things they did. We bomb a wedding,
we bomb our allies ,
we bomb and we bomb,
Let the bombs decide!
Let the bombs decide!
Ever wonder what a Soviet made action film was like?
This is “Solo Voyage” also known as “The Detached Mission”. And it is the Russian response to jingoistic cinema like “Rambo” or “Red Dawn”? This is that film
This movie is about an American treasure hunter named Jack Harrison who joins forces with a team of Soviet Marines ( or Naval Infantry) in order to thwart a plot by the CIA and military industrialists who plan to launch a nuclear missile to frame the Soviets and disrupt a disarmament summit… and maybe even start World War III! But Harrison, Major Shatokin, and a brave team Soviet troops are determined to stop this conspiracy of the elite and save the world from nuclear war!
Sound familiar? Its just, you are more used to having the Russian and American roles reversed.
