Mark Hamill Steals Show in Loosely Fact-Based Russian Action Comedy Starring Comedian Bert Kreischer

  • Bert Kreischer's party lifestyle catches up to him, leading to a trip to Russia to make amends for past misdeeds.
  • The movie is inspired by Kreischer's long-running stand-up comedy bit about an encounter with the Russian mob.
  • The film leans heavily into action and violence, with mixed results in the comedy department.
  • Kreischer's performance is serviceable but highlights his limited range, while Mark Hamill delivers a scene-stealing turn.
  • The overall product is an uneven action comedy aiming for absurdism but landing in crass and bland territory.
