Full of Wonder, Full of Joy, Full of spark

Genuinely a decent film with superb acting, the mix-of-emotions was on full-display and that's why I think it was good, and interesting to see the character motives unfold into the movie, giving them a progressive and nuanced perspective that would be carried out into the film.Firstly, you have the protective father, ish. Trying to find the source of alien activity when the asteroid hits, which made some sense but in the grand scheme of things it wasn't the smartest idea, especially when alot worse could've happened to him. But he's protective, a searcher and investigator, then he becomes brutally honest to his wife about not being able to produce a baby. It was slightly rushed out here, but it did take my fancy as the arc gradually built-up the tension, I just wish their was more subtly to it, and more feelings towards the situation, as that would of tied their arcs perfectly.I enjoyed the sets, the props, and the camera work, which was mostly good, even if the style did need changing, as it wasn't really panned to make a perspective feel better, more powerful or meaningful, but again the effects and the camera work offers some groundbreaking spectacle on big-proportions.And the third act, whilst having alot going on and it feeling half-baked, Genuinely didn't let go of the scares, the tension and the drama. And the acting is superb here, giving more then one narrative on their situation. A more layered take, which is what I enjoyed. And the gun and the weaponry made it seem dangerous and powerful and offered a dark looming threat, especially when they are theft dealers, or trying to capture something from the meteor rock. Which made it Entertaining.I'd rate this film a 6 because it wasn't that bad on the whole, and it did offer some interesting perspectives along-the-way. Enjoyable.

Had potential...

I had indeed never heard about the 2025 Finnish movie "Pikku-Siperia" (aka "Little Siberia") prior to stumbling upon it by random luck. And with it being a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give director Dome Karukoski's 2025 movie a fair chance.The movie had promise, I will say that much. But writers Dome Karukoski, Minna Panjanen and Antti Tuomainen ultimately took the movie down a somewhat bland and monotonous road. It was a shame, because there was potential for much more to be enjoyed and experienced in the narrative. There just simply wasn't enough interesting things happening throughout the course of the movie, and that made for a rather prolonged and somewhat dull viewing experience.Given my limited exposure to Finnish cinema, then I wasn't familiar with the majority of the cast ensemble. There was a single familiar face on the screen, and that was actor Rune Temte. The acting performances in the movie were good.Visually, then the movie is not one that is particularly relying on special effects in order to tell its tale.Watchable, sure, but hardly a noteworthy, mentionable or outstanding viewing experience. And it is definitely not a movie that I will return to watch a second time.My rating of "Pikku-Siperia" lands on a four out of ten stars.
