Russian war feature tracing a Red Army sergeant's obsession with a seemingly invincible Tiger tank. When Sergeant Ivan Naydenov (Aleksey Vertkov) is badly burnt in a battle with a German white Tiger tank that inflicts devastating damage on the Red Army ranks, he becomes determined to seek revenge. However, this will not be easy. The ghostly white tank seems all but invincible and, having witnessed its power first-hand, Ivan knows the scale of the task that awaits him. Will he find a way to defeat the Tiger before it can inflict further misery on Russian troops? (Metrodome Distribution)

If this was strictly a war film, I would have given it a ‘Boo!’, but since the Russian filmmakers took a slightly different route and made what could have been entitled "The Tank Whisperer", I let the tank tracks lead me to three stars. What made me give it such a high rating is the lack of melodrama in the film's ending and an interesting point that was far from misguided. So yes, I have a lot of reservations concerning this film, but I don't consider it a waste of my time.
