If you want to see a real Chernobyl tragedy go watch a documentary films and interviews of witnesses. Thats a truly breathtaking thing. And 2019 Chernobyl is a good artistic movie, but actually lies a lot about story. And of course it is a product of anti-soviet propaganda, and yes, in 2019🤷

@@newshot3191 Did you watch the trailer? You mean to tell me I cant tell a russian movie from a US, french or german one?

And yes, I am not blind or deaf I can see and hear the bad dubbing.
I would like to see this version, and there was another film about Chernobyl in 2019?? Id love to see that too. An entire populated *town* was affected, they had to leave their entire lives behind..Well, what am I saying? You already know all this smh sorry im an idiot.

What I just don't understand is, in the trailer they sound like they have American Accents even the News Anchor reporting the story to her Comrades ? I wonder where I could find this film, there's so many damn streaming devices!
I'm sorry to inform you but the BBC made the SAME mini-series "docudrama" about the Chernobyl accident in like 2009. John Renck "ripped off" the BBC production. The BBC version is called "Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster - Surviving Disaster (BBC Documentary series)" It was the same exact story. If you doubt me, go to CZcams and watch "Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster - Surviving Disaster (BBC Documentary series)". After you watch it, tell me that John Renck didn't "rip off" the BBC with a straight face!!!

Or because they’re speaking Russian to each. They’d only have that accent you want them to have if they’re speaking English with a Russian accent. People really don’t seem to understand how accents work.
Yeah except the HBO drama was an American production. This is a Russian production. I would say arguably the western production is more in the category of propaganda whereas this has more cultural validity because it's made by and for Russians, who this story has personal relevance to rather than just being Sunday evening entertainment for bored Western audiences.

@@mitchellhogg4627 The HBO show included most of the important points, but did get a few things wrong. For example, it mis-characterized the role of Xenon (Xenon burn-off, even at high power levels, doesn't occur quickly enough to be a significant factor in the reactor's power transient; xenon mattered for setting up a positive void coefficient), and there was a very cringeworthy moment where they said that corium dropping into water could trigger a 30MT explosion (no, not even close). Even with two rather significant blunders, they still did more good than harm at explaining the accident to the public. There's also other details that didn't make the show, such as the roof using flammable tar because the non-flammable tar specified in the design wasn't available in the USSR.
I remember when this happened. It was on the news daily. People lined up in hospital beds. Children sick. It was awful. Didn't really understand how serious it was until I got older.
This movie has a great glimpse of the lives of people in the 1980s Soviet Union, the delivery and aesthetic is completely different from the HBO Series and we should not compare them.
THANK YOU! I was waiting for someone to say this. Everyone saying the series is better without even seeing this film yet. I’m going to watch the film and remember that it is the same story, yes, but it is being told from different perspective.

It was that this version conveniently ignores the accountability aspect, which reeeeeeally p!$$ed them off. THAT is how the incident affected them emotionally. Yes it had heroism and heartfelt drama, but the tragedy, suffering, and pain of the incident cannot be denied. Even all these years later, the Exclusion Zone remains closed off.
Juste un mot pour dire mon admiration et ma reconnaissance à tous les "liquidateurs" qui ont sauvé des millions d'hommes au prix de leurs vies et de leur santé. Seule la Russie avait le mental pour un sacrifice pareil.
Do you know that The story of Chernobyl can be told to you in 1000 and one way through different lives and through people who experienced the chaos from their perspective. Not to mention the dystopic realistic fantasy base which tells what the world if the nuclear lava in the 4th reactor would have reached the water below...
“The release of atomic power has changed everything except our way of thinking. The solution to this problem lies in the heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker." Albert Einstein (1945)
No one 'can't do' what? Tell other viewpoints of this Catastrophe??? An entire heavily populated town was destroyed they had to leave *everything their entire lives behind, their pets, the animals on their farms their entire livelihoods* There are many viewpoints to tell, thousands of stories to tell about Chernobyl. Why not give the film a chance before passing judgement like some Uppity Asshole ?
HBO is hands down, one of the best series.. period. It had Russian actors, Locations, even some parts were spoken IN Russian. As good as this looks, HBO will win, and likely will never be defeated
I thought the same thing......... no matter how good the screen play is this was a Russian story and it feels odd to hear half the cast with American acents.
HBO Chernobyl was a MASTERPIECE in any imaginable way , (Actors,Screeenplay,Directing,Photographi,Perspective inovations)-TOP ,this is bs,but hey,the russians hade to have their own version (yes,this is ruski film,and they speak in russian in the movie,this is sinhronized) , btw i wached it-"not great-not terrible" ;) PULL THE STRINGS,PULL THE STRINGS!
But they’d only have that accent, sounding like a Russian speaking English, if were speaking English. Have you seen The Hunt for Red October? The Russians don’t speak with accents in that as they’re meant to be speaking in Russian. Much like most of the HBO series don’t have accents. Stellan does as English isn’t his first language.
Just watched the HBO's Chernobyl for the third time and thought nothing would even get close to it........but this one makes me excited. High expectations
When only thinking that the story is reality it gives me goosebumps it self 💔💔💔 it makes me really sad and heart broken for what these innocent people went through
I watched both the HBO series and the movie. My advise is that if you’re just want to watch a movie go watch this, but if you want the closest thing to the real Chernobyl go watch the HBO series 10/10
If you want to watch a real Chernobyl go watch a documentary films and interviews of witnesses. Thats a truly breathtaking thing. And 2019 Chernobyl is a good artistic movie, but actually lies a lot about story. And of course it is a product of anti-soviet propaganda, and yes, in 2019🤷
this movie was made by russians, they kind of wanted to do it their way, as the accident happened in the former soviet union that is now russia, not to mention that this is a real fact, not a fictional story made for entertainment, but ok.
@@uniaorussia350 But they failed the only movie the russians made a anti war movie come and see from 1985 is stil the most haunting anti war and war movie ever made u should wach it in my opinion its a masterpice like hbo series !
When you've witnessed the best....you don't want to watch anything else. The HBO series was so damn perfect in every aspect that even without any dramatization of the events it pulled on your heartstrings. And then there is this ostentatious drama. Really....what was the need for this movie ? Just because the "Chernobyl" topic is still hot, doesn't mean the audience will accept any mediocre product. Infact this movie will be overshadowed due to comparisons. Look at the IMDB ratings already!! Movie makers need to act in a sensible way
Movie makers can make whatever they want. And if you think this one is bad, you should see the disgusting 2012 movie somebody made called "Chernobyl Diaries", which had everything from a beefy Ukrainian ex-soldier named "Yuri" as a tour guide, to zombies in gas masks that eat people.
@@JarethTheGoblinKingForever LMAO!!! I went into watching that movie knowing it would be bad and was still disappointed. The only thing that movie is good for is trolling friends who haven’t seen it, hyping it up, and enjoying them cringe for 1:26. If I have to live with the fact that this movie is in my memory, so do they.
I was stationed in Germany when Chernobyl blew. We had to deal with the radioactive fallout that was descending on Germany and our area where I was stationed.
From the thumbnail - it looks like they are cashing in on HBO success and trying to add unrealistic gore to their production. There is a very good documentary here, on CZcams, by the head of radiation safety in medicine for the US and herself, who was a receiving doctor on the day this happened. She discounts many theatrical displays of radition sickness and explains what happens and in what sequence. Well worth watching if you want something more real rather than theatre. HBO did a superb job weaving fact into a story and created one character to represent a multitude of scientists, whose voices simply could not articulated into a mini series. HBO, I think, will be the Gold standard by which every other fictionalised story will be compared in future.
so this is basically a supercut of the HBO series, that'll air in cinemas guess im ok with it, but I hope there will be a non-dub version available somewhere, as those English dubs are horrendous
I find it quite ironic that Russian media slate the HBO series for not showing the heroism of the characters involved and that it focuses too much on the lies and cover-ups of officials. Whilst the Russian accounts of the story makes up characters and leaves out the names of the true heroes who've fought to contain this tragedy. It's absolutely despicable.
Why do the film makers feel they need to dub this film with American voice actors? Are they afraid Americans won't watch it? Well, screw America, they're unimportant and self destructing anyway, give me the Russian voice actors and subtitles. Cheers
Aftr the HBO series I dnt think anything else will live up to the expectations 😭❤️

I'll give it a 3.6
This is how you make a Movie about a Incident to prove how good the TV show on the very same event was.. you guys nailed that objective 😁
this movie is mediocre shit
No way this lives up to the mini series.
this actually looks good and promising.
0:36 Chernobyl melted down at roughly 1:23 in the morning while it looks like they are approaching the plant at roughly 6:00 in the morning
I watched both the HBO series and the movie.
My advise is that if you’re just want to watch a movie go watch this, but if you want the closest thing to the real Chernobyl go watch the HBO series 10/10
If you want to watch a real Chernobyl go watch a documentary films and interviews of witnesses. Thats a truly breathtaking thing. And 2019 Chernobyl is a good artistic movie, but actually lies a lot about story. And of course it is a product of anti-soviet propaganda, and yes, in 2019🤷
The series encapusalted all that needed to be said, why make a movie? i have a feeling it will be shit compared to the HBO series
money grab, and the voice over acting for american audiences is so shit too
I saw it yesterday and I can confirm the movie was shit. If you suffer constipation this is the right movie to watch to go to the toilette.
this movie was made by russians, they kind of wanted to do it their way, as the accident happened in the former soviet union that is now russia, not to mention that this is a real fact, not a fictional story made for entertainment, but ok.
@@uniaorussia350 But they failed the only movie the russians made a anti war movie come and see from 1985 is stil the most haunting anti war and war movie ever made u should wach it in my opinion its a masterpice like hbo series !
@@uniaorussia350 *the accident happened in the former Soviet Union that is now Ukraine.
What a savage Lada he had
But it will help keep the young men in our minds and hearts of their sacrifice. 🇬🇧
this movie is literary not great not terrible
When you've witnessed the best....you don't want to watch anything else. The HBO series was so damn perfect in every aspect that even without any dramatization of the events it pulled on your heartstrings. And then there is this ostentatious drama. Really....what was the need for this movie ? Just because the "Chernobyl" topic is still hot, doesn't mean the audience will accept any mediocre product. Infact this movie will be overshadowed due to comparisons. Look at the IMDB ratings already!! Movie makers need to act in a sensible way
Movie makers can make whatever they want. And if you think this one is bad, you should see the disgusting 2012 movie somebody made called "Chernobyl Diaries", which had everything from a beefy Ukrainian ex-soldier named "Yuri" as a tour guide, to zombies in gas masks that eat people.
@@JarethTheGoblinKingForever LMAO!!! I went into watching that movie knowing it would be bad and was still disappointed. The only thing that movie is good for is trolling friends who haven’t seen it, hyping it up, and enjoying them cringe for 1:26. If I have to live with the fact that this movie is in my memory, so do they.
Lmfao most of the HBO series was dramatized. Valery Legasov wasn’t even at the trial in the 5th episode.
@@MatthewHackett Utter propaganda and bullshit from everyside, the fact that people hold on to these movies shows how weak mind they have
I still wanna see this! Scrutinise topics down to the very bone marrow that's my way of finding knowledge
1:52, you're welcome.
is that black guy the one who played in Vikings? the king, i forgot the name 😁
I was stationed in Germany when Chernobyl blew. We had to deal with the radioactive fallout that was descending on Germany and our area where I was stationed.
Just makes me wanna watch the HBO series again and not see the movie
Was a great movie to show history.
This movie is a good movie but should be viewed as a side story like all stories about chernobyls inhabitants.
I was hooked
Honestly, I'll take a 5 hour series about these events over a single 2-2.5 hour movie any day
HBO Chernobyl series looks way better than this student project
This movie looks mad sick
It was 1 AM when the firefighters arrive... not dusk.
From the thumbnail - it looks like they are cashing in on HBO success and trying to add unrealistic gore to their production.
There is a very good documentary here, on CZcams, by the head of radiation safety in medicine for the US and herself, who was a receiving doctor on the day this happened. She discounts many theatrical displays of radition sickness and explains what happens and in what sequence. Well worth watching if you want something more real rather than theatre.
HBO did a superb job weaving fact into a story and created one character to represent a multitude of scientists, whose voices simply could not articulated into a mini series. HBO, I think, will be the Gold standard by which every other fictionalised story will be compared in future.
so this is basically a supercut of the HBO series, that'll air in cinemas
guess im ok with it, but I hope there will be a non-dub version available somewhere, as those English dubs are horrendous
It isn't. The story told from the 3 men squad perspective rather than being a political drama like HBO.
@@cianakril meh that’s why a supercut, it cuts out all the political parts and only focuses on the power plant
this feels 'americanized'...long live the HBO miniseries, peak documentary drama/cinema
hbo mini series will forever be up top, i doubt anything can match it
Is this movie, about a young Joe Biden? As within the first few seconds, we have a guy sniffing hair!
HBO better than Netflix
Instead of other serie of chernobyl, they should made a serie about hisashi ouchi.
This man no need presentation.
I find it quite ironic that Russian media slate the HBO series for not showing the heroism of the characters involved and that it focuses too much on the lies and cover-ups of officials. Whilst the Russian accounts of the story makes up characters and leaves out the names of the true heroes who've fought to contain this tragedy. It's absolutely despicable.
Based on a true HBO production
Cringe
@@lemitakle9884 K
They Hollywooded the whole thing..... Again.....
Watch the mini series, way better than this
0:32 car glass not broken
I watched it and yes, the HBO series was really good, but this is from the account of the firefighters. I enjoyed it.
Hi
Why do the film makers feel they need to dub this film with American voice actors? Are they afraid Americans won't watch it? Well, screw America, they're unimportant and self destructing anyway, give me the Russian voice actors and subtitles. Cheers
There is a version in Russian u mook
This dubbed is trash
Ok even without the Chernobyl miniseries. This looks kinda bad.
Some of the most heroic people ever.
Mostly some of the most ...fooled.
@@StarskiPL ?
@@IGoBrrrt173 most of this heroic people didn't know what they are dealing with.
@@StarskiPL Yeah.
Nobody wants to eat a waffle, after eating a homemade cake.
FYI, this move sucks. Has nothing to do with Chernobyl disaster, mark my words.
I'd rather re-watch the series than this hapazard rushed and unsatisfactory crap!
Waiting for movies like Chernobyl Zombies: The Aftermath!
i gotta do what must be done, to do the thing that needs doing.
IT'S CHERNOBYLING TIME!
