Siberia

Siberia is an 2018 film. The movie stars Keanu Reeves and Ana Ularu. Molly Ringwald makes a couple of brief appearances. The film is set in Russia.



Keanu plays a diamond agent from the US that flies to Russia to close a deal for blue diamonds. Keanu's partner Pyotr was to procure the sample and the diamonds. However, upon arrival in St. Petersburg, Pyotr is MIA. The buyer is a stereotypical Russian mobster that will hurt you if the deal goes bad. Keanu is now in a panic to get the sample and to deliver the shipment. Pyotr is still nowhere in sight, but leaves a location. Keanu thus goes out to Siberia to try to investigate and close the deal. While there, Keanu meets Ana Ularu's character of Katya at the local café. They begin an affair while he's trying to close the deal. Will he find the diamonds and still love Katya?

This movie was really slow. But it was meant to be that way. I was prepared for a slow moving film with convoluted plot twist. So I didn't think it was so bad. It's not a typical Keanu role, but he hasn't really played to type ever.

I watched this film via Amazon Prime.
