According to Grigoriev, the director managed to bring something of his own, new and fresh to the action movie genre.

“It was high time for someone to do it.

Here was our guy who came up with a technical idea of ​​how to shoot action films so that the viewer's involvement was maximized.

These are some technical solutions, including dynamics, ”the film critic explained.

The expert noted that there has been a certain stagnation in this genre for a long time.

“And action films were 'tired' as a genre in the early 2000s.

There weren't any powerful action games for a very long time.

“Nobody” turned viewers back to this genre, ”he added.

At the same time, according to Grigoriev, the fact that the film was shot by a Russian director and the fact that Russian actors took part in it did not affect the interest of the American viewer in the film. 

“I don't think it has any impact at all.

The surname "Naishuller" absolutely does not say that he is from Russia.

I think that rather, it somehow surprised them that the Russian actors ... I don't even know if they realize that they are Russian actors.

Only if later they watch the credits or IMDB, ”he concluded.

Earlier it was reported that Naishuller's film "Nobody" over the past weekend took first place in the box office in the United States. 

The crime thriller "Nobody" was released on March 18.

It was filmed by the Russian director Ilya Naishuller, known for the film "Hardcore" and the clips of the group "Leningrad".

The main role in the film was played by the star of the TV series "Breaking Bad" and "Better Call Saul" Bob Odenkirk, who also initiated the project, which was based on a real story from the life of the actor.
