Reviews
Very best movie i ever watch
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Great filmmaking. Stanislav plays himself making the film even more authentic.
This was a well-executed documentary, where the subject was allowed to be "himself" giving us a window into his mind and how he came to that great, untold decision which saved earth from nuclear annihilation.While watching the documentary; I couldn't help but put myself in his shoes. Petrov saved earth, lost his wife and the army "punished" him for his decision. To make matters worse, he died an angry man because, humanity did not learn anything from Hiroshima, Nagasaki and the 1983 incident.I highly recommend this TRUE documentary of the greatest man we never knew.
The Plot/Few people know of him.Yet hundreds of millions of people are alive because of him. The actions of Stanislav Petrov, a retired Soviet military officer, prevented the start of a worldwide nuclear war and the devastation of much of the Earth.I am shocked at the good reviews here on IMDb and am convinced most of them are from clowns who worked on the movie.This film is dull, lifeless and boring.It's really a 20 minute TV show stretched out to 105 minute that will put you to sleep. There is no drama or tension. And you already know the ending. Zzzzzzzzzz.You are warned.
The Man Who Saved the World, a feature film, tells the true yet nearly untold story of Stanislav Petrov, the Soviet lieutenant colonel who single-handedly prevented nuclear Armageddon at the height of the Cold War.Many films aspire to tackle macro-society issues and intimate human relationships within the same story, but it often results in over-exposition or a muddy story with underdeveloped characters. "The Man Who Saved the World" succeeds in touching the audience with an important societal concern, while also developing the connective tissues to make us feel for a raw, flawed human being. This feature could not come more highly recommended. A truly wonderful and amazing film.
