I dont understand all the hate in the comments. The movie shows latvian perspective from ww1(if that is not original i dont know what is) and altough it doesnt have the budget like Hollywood movies, it does have not that bad visual effects. Thats why they probably made it more like a drama than a war movie, so they dont have to focus on effects. All in all a solid 6.5 or even 7 out of 10. But its definitely worth watching! Hope you have a nice Day :)
@@jugbywellington1134 Maybe. Some intellectuals in Western Europe seem to have a rather haughty perspective on countries like Latvia. Some people in Russia seem to have difficulties in accepting the fact that countries like Latvia are now no more Moscows datchas on the Baltic shore.

This movie wasn't ment to be compared with a Hollywood production level film, this is just to show the latvian perspective during ww1 and nothing else, just enjoy the movie ffs
I was sad that they cut out the girl in the beginning story, the description of the automatic machine guns, the dead bodies with the smog rolling in at the beginning sequence, and the sequence of his girl being taken away in the field.

Well its realistic enought for its budged , and for those whos complaining about the cimparing thingy , watch original trailer yall! Its just a provocation to get higher rating , but u should definatly watch the movie , as Latvian i can confirm that its pretty accurate
1917 is overrated. All film waiting for a final epic battle that never comes so stop talking trash about this film when you guys haven't even watched. Compare your film with another in your trailer is a mistake also
I love how the comments are all debates about how the visuals look or being tedious about the authenticity of minor details. When it says it's more realistic than 1917 it's on about the STORY not the effects. I can't back it up because although I do have a strong interest in WW1/2 and war in general I can't say how realistic other parts would be. I've heard good things about it though and I'd also like to point out the trailer for Lord of the Rings was SHIT and yet it's still a good film so don't judge everything on the trailer.
I'd say it's drama and action. The storyline focuses on the main characters feelings a lot and also relationships so it's not like it's an action only movie.
This movie was amazing, worth a watch! I remeber when it first came out every latvian had to see it in the cinema, i even went two times to see it. Definently the best movie from Latvia so far.
What do you mean "beat" 1917? This isn't a competition, it's just another movie. Focus on: *another* movie, showing another story, characters and perspective. This is art, not football, no one has to "beat" anything
For me, 1917 had more visual effects and killings, made an impression of how it was like to be a soldier in WW1, however Blizzard of Souls movie has an entire story of how a very small (and for 700 years enslaved) nation (Latvians) gained independence from German (and later Soviet) intervenience in the region during and after WW1. If you like cool effects- 1917 is for you. If you like an actual story other than cool kills and slaughterhouse- this one is for you.
Just watched it, amazing movie and great antiwar piece. Glad that Latvians have their independance now (eraly 90's) after so many decades under foreign powers. In fact, pretty similar story to Croatia where I'm from.
Well, there is a notable difference, we first became independent in 1918-1920 (which is what's shown in the end of the film), although between 1940 and 1990 independence was mostly nominal and in exile (see Welles Declaration).
Kinda inaccurate, Germans weren't that savage to civilians in WW1 at least not compared to WW2. But the Latvian rifles in ww1 were great soldiers, they prevented the Germans from taking Riga. Only reason Riga fell is because the soldiers were ordered to pull back

The movie is great, and really watchable, really recommend to watch it. But movie is too short tell all the story that was in that huge book I have read years ago. To tell all the story they could make at least mini-series, total at least 10 hours, maybe then it would be enough.
Thump, a punch in the stomach. As little we know (on average) of Latvian history, this is both another totally senseless war, as it is about defending home heroically against a massive invasion. I think the title will do the movie justice.

it originally came out in 2019, but it had no subtitles at first as it was still a latvian culture film, it came onto amazon as "the rifleman" with subtitles in 2020 i think
Weird how I'm hearing about this movie just now, I mean looks great, maybe if they ever have a US Blu Ray release, maybe I'll see if it's actually great.
This looks like it's trying to exaggerate world war 1 with tons of unnecessary battle sequences etc. Might still be a cool movie...but I doubt it'll be more realistic or better than 1917
I have never been more pissed of by a movie trailer than this one which captions "better than 1917" just may I say 1917 wasn't about the war, it was about a man surviving while trying his hardest to deliver orders to prevent the slaughter of hundreds of men.
Latvia should follow up with a movie on the Forest Brothers. The Forest Brothers were Baltic and Estonian partisans who waged guerrilla warfare against the Soviet regime during the Soviet invasion and occupation of the three Baltic states during, and after, World War II.
It mainly has two names. The Rifleman and Blizzard of Souls. In Latvia, the more popular name is "Dvēseļu Putenis" Or Blizzard of souls. However, outside Latvia, I've heard the name "Rifleman" more often. But You may call it However you like.
yeah naming is wierd, Dvēseļu Putenis is the name of the original novel and therefore film, and that translates to blizzard of souls but the rifleman sells better in forign markets
Ah yes more realistic than 1917 well you see if you want a realistic ww1 movie it would be about people sitting in trenches joking around and doing notting

@@ivario everyone around Latvia were against Latvian independence, so does it make Latvian good guys?
The movie is great, and really watchable, really recommend to watch it. But movie is too short tell all the story that was in that huge book I have read years ago. To tell all the story they could make at least mini-series, total at least 10 hours, maybe then it would be enough.
I'm Latvian and this movie was great 😅
already saw it ..... good movie
where when how??
so is this movie out now? if so how do we watch it?
Amazon prime
This might be worth checking out.
Mhm looks interestimg havent Seen much movies about the Eastern fron of the first world war.
This film was made earlier than 1917 film
The movie was trash as hell
@@byus6928 oh look a salty kid who doesn't know what a good movie is
yup, came out in 2019 and began filming in 2013
Thump, a punch in the stomach. As little we know (on average) of Latvian history, this is both another totally senseless war, as it is about defending home heroically against a massive invasion. I think the title will do the movie justice.
In Canada it is called “War Movie with Latvians”
In America it's "War Movie - Without Americans"
sounds so cheap lol
Propaganda shit, no thanks
why
Imma gonna report this comment
Garry, for propoganda ship please go to tv chanel - Rossia 1, here is a historical and autobiogr. movie showing a part of our history and events taking place in Latvia
Beautiful film
I love movies like this
A Latvian soldier that serve both Russian army and Red Army i think .
yup, arthur in the book serves under the tsar, then the soviets and then the latvian revolutionary army
Esa película si me gustaría verla, es como 1917 pero diferente
I watched it recently, highly recommended for all true war movies fans, much better than 1917!
It's a must that I watch all war movies especially ones from other countries
better than 1917
I love war movies that aren’t in Amarican glory perspective. Come and See was darker than anything I’ve seen from U.S perspective. Just sayin.
I'll have to check that one out. I actually prefer films like this,and other foreign war films to the ones glorifying the US all the time. These movies are really gritty and much more heartfelt. But that's imho.
What crack are they smoking at The Hollywood Reporter?!?!
Рижская киностудия в ссср славилась хорошими фильмами и подбором актеров! Надеюсь современники не подкачают !!
я поспешу разочаровать. Невероятная дресня. Нам подобное кино насильно показывали в школе (окончил латышскую школу 2 года назад). Всё кино это просто сплошная политическая повестка от правительства в котором сидят натуральные нацисты. Никакой историей там и не пахнет, а вот всяких сказок про заград-отряды, красных насильников, русских оккупантов полна картина. Единственное нормальное кино снятое за последнее время это: Команда мечты.
А ещё говорят в СССР промывали мозги!? В банановых республиках бывшего СССР тотальная промывка и даже существует шпрехен фюрер.
Даже Трампа блокировали "свобода слова"! Ахаха
Какой вы наивный...теперь смысл их кино в оправдании себя и в обличении других. Про латышских стрелков, к примеру, они не снимут в стиле "красные палачи" защитники революции.
@@dimseza1541 хотелось бы посмотреть фильм ,а не сразу клеймить и высказавать догадки и свои предубеждения/заблуждения.
@@sovietknyaz9934 Просто ремарка÷ аккупанты - это все кто пришел НЕ В ГОСТИ и приэтом еще и навязывает свои правила.С какого перепугу вы учили латышский? Ваш путь чемодам ,вокзал, Кострома!
Nope, it didn't break the " Top Gun Maverick " .
Jesus Loves You
“A more realistic 1917”
AIGHT BET.
but...ive seen this on amazon prime already
I was about to ask if any streaming service has this
it originally came out in 2019, but it had no subtitles at first as it was still a latvian culture film, it came onto amazon as "the rifleman" with subtitles in 2020 i think
Weird how I'm hearing about this movie just now, I mean looks great, maybe if they ever have a US Blu Ray release, maybe I'll see if it's actually great.
Who needs bluray when we have illegal websites
This looks like it's trying to exaggerate world war 1 with tons of unnecessary battle sequences etc.
Might still be a cool movie...but I doubt it'll be more realistic or better than 1917
I have never been more pissed of by a movie trailer than this one which captions "better than 1917" just may I say 1917 wasn't about the war, it was about a man surviving while trying his hardest to deliver orders to prevent the slaughter of hundreds of men.
welcome back Nationalism. I like it.
Latvia should follow up with a movie on the Forest Brothers. The Forest Brothers were Baltic and Estonian partisans who waged guerrilla warfare against the Soviet regime during the Soviet invasion and occupation of the three Baltic states during, and after, World War II.
This look awesome
I need to watch this.
In fact this movie is called " The Rifleman". It is interesting, not the best I've seen but for sure above the average.
That's the title only in the UK
I’m confused, I watched this last year on amazon but it was called the Rifleman haha. Also, would recommend 7/10.
It mainly has two names. The Rifleman and Blizzard of Souls. In Latvia, the more popular name is "Dvēseļu Putenis" Or Blizzard of souls. However, outside Latvia, I've heard the name "Rifleman" more often.
But You may call it However you like.
@@LightZuperman Thanks for letting me know, that's really interesting!
yeah naming is wierd, Dvēseļu Putenis is the name of the original novel and therefore film, and that translates to blizzard of souls but the rifleman sells better in forign markets
Looks dope af
Me just waiting for a historic movie without ww1 or 2 or some Arthur bullshit
One day we will get a film about the German arny in ww1
Let me guess, another depressing war movie?
Not really, there's enough scenes of eveyday humor and life :) Give it a go!
Ya ví la película, muy buena...
Y donde la viste??
@@rubencg2654 movie plus, está en la store Android y es gratis,...
Búscala en la sección de Bélico con el nombre de Dvèselu o Blizzard of souls, denada crack... :V
Would like to see it
What's the song that starts in 0.06 ? If someone could help
WAR IS MURDER
Это история о том как ваши деды воевали защищая свою страну.. То ли от немцев то ли от русских??
Не понятно, но очень интерестно.
Латышские стрелки, гугли)
Сначала в царской армии против немцев -извечных латышских врагов, потом против красной гидры! :)
5hat looks amazing
Looks realistic!
Ah yes more realistic than 1917 well you see if you want a realistic ww1 movie it would be about people sitting in trenches joking around and doing notting
guess what buckaroo, that is a part of the film
the. grat. wur. for nothng. 1*/5 or 10. tac yor pc.
Came from insider
I admit when I read the title I thought it was a new Fromsoftware title.
Oooooooooo 👍💯
In my opinion 1917 wasn’t that great.
Yeah, sure, I'll watch.
Another great WW1 movie finally looks like this year is ganna be a good one
