Rosenthal serves up a hilarious documentary of his travails developing "The Voroniny," or, as it was known in development, "Everybody Loves Kostya." Read full review

At its most compelling when Rosenthal explores why the crassest entertainment is internationally successful, even in the home of theatrical naturalism. Read full review

I mean no disrespect to Rosenthal when I say I laughed louder during the movie than during any episode of his hit TV show. Read full review

What happens if you mix 'Everybody Loves Raymond' with a documentary...

You get an Everybody Loves Raymond documentary!! Interesting to see them try to make the popular sitcom acceptable for Russian audiences. 9/10
