1 | * BannedInChina: The movie was blocked from official theatrical release in UsefulNotes/{{Russia}} and several ex-Soviet republics due to its less than positive depiction of the [[UsefulNotes/SovietRussiaUkraineAndSoOn former USSR]]. In particular, the Russian minister of culture accused the filmmakers of vilifying the USSR as DirtyCommunists living in {{Mordor}}, and using ArtisticLicenseHistory to transport the acts of real life serial killer [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrei_Chikatilo Andrei Chikatilo]], which occurred during the tail end of the USSR, into the period of UsefulNotes/JosefStalin. |
2 | * BoxOfficeBomb: It grossed just $13 million against its $50 million budget. |
3 | * FakeRussian: Pretty much the entire cast, using heavily accented English to boot. |
