this film seem to me good than brat and balabanov ome recent film ( voyna and mne ne bolno ) . danila and the hero play by sergei bodrov jr. here remind u of some well know character from action film ( travis from taxi driver and or good to say and james bond from 007 series ) . hero with firearm and who never lose in love affair and in gunfight and who revenge his friend death and protect potential victim of villain and save good people and and then go back to motherland with new girlfriend . the villain here be an american cunning businessman and his mafia like bodyguard and who be exploit poor russian in various way . too simple to be comment . but in fact brat 2 be not so simple . danila doesn not kill that american businessman and after have manage to convince him that money doesn not make a man strong than those who be with truth . but his elder brother and who have come to america with the same purpose a danila ( avenge ) be already be infect with money worship to the end of the film . danila remain a he be and to be russian muzhik ( bumpkin ) and sympathetic and sometimes violent and tactful and full of wisdom of life and but not at all refine or intelligent . the last sequence with inserted song of russian rock band nautilus pompilius be really great and whole seem reference to american and western action film get toppled upside down and because when credit title appear and suddenly the song declare representboodby and america and where i have never be . in fact and the song be make in 1980s by provincial young musician and who have never be to america . russian muzhik win fictional america and it soulless capitalism in the end .
