An absolute cinematic disaster.

The roaring twenties of the new century. The era of messengers, electronic cigarettes and universal digitalization. The main character is Andrey Mirkin, a promising head of a PR agency. He owes his success and beautiful life to women. Mirkin can seduce almost anyone, he is charismatic, courteous and cynically uses it. He goes head over heels, not thinking about how many lives he has ruined along the way. He just doesn't care. The cherry on the cake in the hero's career promises to be a multimillion-dollar tender. Mirkin's victory in it is guaranteed in advance. But no one knows how much dirt is behind this well-being. And in the coming days, it will overwhelm Mirkin.

The cinematography in The Dolls is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Director clearly thought The Dolls was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in The Dolls?

Honestly, The Dolls would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in The Dolls?

Everyone praising the The Dolls performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

Unpopular opinion: The Dolls is the most overrated film of the decade

Look, I wanted to love The Dolls. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
