A violent and realistic look at the war between Russia and Afghanistan, ESCAPE FROM AFGHANISTAN concerns a Russian photojournalist and a doctor who are caught up in battle when a skirmish flares up while they are interviewing prisoners near the country's border. As the madness escalates, the doctor tends to the wounded and the photojournalist captures unforgettable images with his camera.

Rated - 1 starsDo Not Watch It

I like action and war films quite a lot, this is the fist time in my life I haven't finished watching an action film, after 20 minutes I decided to stop, but I should have done it before.

Please don't try, it's a pity that the minimun stars you can give are one only just because this film deserves 5 negative.

Rated - 2 starsA real shame

If the version I had watched had have been in its original language with subtitles, it may have been quite a gripping and tense account of Russia’s war in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, it was badly dubbed with an appalling narrative that came across as a straight-to-video title from the late 80’s.

I only managed to watch about 30 mins of this film and that was enough. If this is anything to go by I would stay clear of this film. Go out and get p!ssed instead...
