Salyut 7 was something of a surprise discovery for me, just stumbling upon it.I wish it had received a wider attention, This movie feels like it came from nowhere and I lapped it up.Its a riveting and powerful film about human triumph over adversity. And the Gravity-like visuals really intensify the you-are-there feeling I guess you have to forgive dramatic license-this film used,its dramatizations, rather than a documentary, after all. Overall this is a great movie. And two days ago I'd never even heard of it.In any case, anybody who enjoyed either Apollo 13 or Gravity will likely really enjoy this film, it's nice to see Russian cinema demonstrating its ability to measure up to Hollywood and give us a different flavor.
Plot summary
The year is 1985. The unmanned Soviet space station Salyut 7, which is in low Earth orbit, suddenly stops responding to commands from the Control Center. If the space station - the pride of Soviet space engineering - falls from the sky, not only will it damage the image of the country, it could also be a disaster bringing untold casualties. To investigate the failure and prevent the catastrophe, people must be sent to the station. Yet no one in history has ever attempted to dock an uncontrolled vehicle in space. To this day, this mission is considered to be the most technically challenging in the history of space exploration.

Relatively realistic
Relatively realistic, several climax settings are relatively good. Unfortunately, there are a few links in the middle of the transition, and the content of the paving is insipid.

No llega, Does not reach
Para mi gusto se queda en la nada, o en el espacio. Es una película distante, que no llega a tener ni la tensión ni la fuerza, ni el patriotismo, ni la garra, que suelen tener este tipo de películas. Es una superproducción a lo americano, pero ellos si saben hacer bien ese tipo de cosas, aquí se han quedado cortos
Los efectos, no llegan a ser buenos, no llegas a creerte que es una película en el espacio, si no que se ve el ordenador. Dentro de la nave si te lo llegas a creer, pero sobre todo, cuando están fuera de la nave, no está conseguido
Los actores, tampoco llegan a atraparte. Ninguno tiene una interpretación memorable.
La iluminación no termina de ser estupenda. Sobre todo en exteriores, es fea. Además no te lleva a creerte que estas en esa época. No así el vestuario que si está estupendo.
La dirección, no me termina de gustar. No hace unos planos como podría hacer, podría poner la cámara donde quisiera, es ordenador, y no lo hace. Es una cámara que observa. No te aburre, pero tampoco consigue atraparte.
Pero bueno, la puedes ver, te entretienes un rato y te enteras de algo de lo que paso.
For my taste it stays in nothing, or in space. It is a distant film, which has neither the tension nor the strength, nor the patriotism, nor the claw, which usually have this type of film. It's an overproduction to the American, but if they know how to do that kind of thing well, here they have fallen short
The effects, do not get to be good, do not get to believe that it is a movie in space, if not that the computer is seen. Inside the ship if you get to believe it, but above all, when they are out of the ship, it is not achieved
The actors also do not get to catch you. None has a memorable interpretation. The lighting does not end up being great. Especially outdoors, it's ugly. Also, it does not take you to believe you are in that era. Not so the wardrobe that is great.
The address, I do not finish liking. He does not make plans as he could do, he could put the camera where he wanted, it's a computer, and he does not. It is a camera that observes. It does not bore you, but it does not get you either.
But hey, you can see it, you entertain a while and you find out something that happened
