V2. Escape from Hell

Summer of 1944. The Soviet troops are on the offensive, but the enemy is still very strong. In a battle with German fighters, a Soviet pilot, Mikhail Devyatayev is shot down over enemy territory and is captured. Now he has to make a choice: die in a concentration camp or go back to the sky – but on the side of the Germans. The pilot chooses the third option – escape. But how do you hijack a plane from a heavily guarded military base where the Nazis are developing retribution weapons that can change the course of the war at the last moment? The film is based on real events – the story of the Hero of the Soviet Union Mikhail Devyatayev, who decided to make a daring escape from a German concentration camp.{{Citation|title=Девятаев (2021)|url=https://www.kinoafisha.info/movies/8357040/|language=ru|access-date=2021-05-03}}

The film is based on renowned Soviet Union fighter pilot Mikhail Devyatayev who managed to escape the most secret prison of the Nazis – Usedom, an island of the southern Balitc Sea. Devyatayev, the prisoner of war fled the Nazis through stealth and courage. The pilot brought along in the cargo of a hijacked aircraft, advanced ballistic designs of Hitler's "weapon of retaliation" – V-2 ballistic missiles and coordinates. The prisoner of war barely managed to come back home alive to the Soviet Union weighing only 36 kilograms. The blueprints turned the tide of World War II, as the Soviet command later captured the island fortress from the Nazis possibly saving the Soviet Union from the terrible fate of a future launch of the V-2 ballistics missiles.{{Cite news|last=Korsakov|first=Denis|date=2021-04-22|title=Режиссер Тимур Бекмамбетов: О подвиге Михаила Девятаева я узнал благодаря жене|trans-title=Director Timur Bekmambetov: I learned about the feat of Mikhail Devyataev thanks to my wife|url=https://www.kp.ru/daily/27268.4/4401676/|access-date=2021-04-30|website=kp.ru|language=ru}}{{Cite web|title=Тимур Бекмамбетов: патриотизм рождается из верности своему слову и преданности друзьям|trans-title=Timur Bekmambetov: patriotism is born out of loyalty to one's word and loyalty to friends|url=https://tass.ru/interviews/11247131|access-date=2021-05-01|website=ТАСС|language=ru}} The missiles had the range to hit as far as North America and Moscow.{{Cite web|title="Прямо дух захватывает": зрители – о первом трейлере военной драмы "Девятаев"|trans-title="It takes your breath away": the audience-about the first trailer of the military drama " Devyataev"|url=https://smotrim.ru/article/2528035|access-date=2021-05-01|website=smotrim.ru|language=ru}} The fugitives managed to obtain the exact layouts of the rocket launchers on the island, which helped the Allies to destroy the enemy's bases, and made the defeat of Nazis inevitable.{{Cite web|date=2020-02-15|title=Прилучный воплотит Девятаева в первом вертикальном фильме Бекмамбетова|trans-title=Priluchny will embody Devyataev in Bekmambetov's first vertical film|url=https://www.kino-teatr.ru/kino/news/y2020/2-15/20388/|access-date=2021-05-02|website=Kino-Teatr|language=ru}} Former prisoners of war, after healing from starvation, took part in the storming of Berlin; many of them died during the crossing of the Oder and fighting for the city.{{Cite web|date=2021-04-23|title=Что за песню спел лидер Rammstein для российского фильма "Девятаев"?|trans-title=What song did the leader of Rammstein sing for the Russian film "Devyataev"?|url=https://aif.ru/culture/movie/chto_za_pesnyu_spel_lider_rammstein_dlya_rossiyskogo_filma_devyataev|access-date=2021-04-30|website=aif.ru|language=ru}} Of the group of prisoners of war who escaped with Devyateyev, only two survived to the end of the war, during the capture of Berlin or during the battles with Japan.{{Cite web|last=Karev|first=Igor|date=2020-03-19|title=Вертикальный фильм с онлайн-боями.

At the Moscow International Film Festival the film opened to critical acclaim.{{Cite web|title=Жажда жизни и преданность Родине: фильм "Девятаев" открыл ММКФ|trans-title=Thirst for life and devotion to the Motherland: the film "Devyataev" opened the MIFF|url=https://smotrim.ru/article/2554690|access-date=2021-05-01|website=smotrim.ru|language=ru}} A review from Kommersant noted filming went online after its postponement due to COVID-19. The reviewer wondered, "How to engage in air combat for those who spend their days driving a piston-engined fighter in a computer game? How can I feel the azure sky by drawing it on the computer pixel by pixel?" The final verdict states, "The authors of Devyataev coped with almost all these tasks. At least in the escape scene, you empathize with the main characters as much as you do with Ocean's friends, and in the aerial episodes, the pace and turns make you squeeze into a chair while your lips inevitably sing Bernes – the romance of heavenly providence, fortunately, dilutes the usual harsh colors of concentration camp films."{{Cite news|title=Девять друзей Девятаева|language=ru|trans-title=Nine friends of Devyataev|work=Kommersant|url=https://www.kommersant.ru/doc/4782811#id2047333|access-date=2021-05-01}}

A review from Kino-Teatr noted, "Devyataev is undoubtedly also inspired by Soviet classics, in particular the film The Fighters with Mark Bernes" and the techniques used evoke "the sensations can be compared to those that arose from the scenes with the hero of Tom Hardy in Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk." In the film, "Favorite City" enhances the action, "Not only the song that the hero of Priluchny first purrs in the cockpit at the most tense moments, and then sings Till Lindemann."{{Cite web|last=Grigorieva|first=Natalia|date=2021-04-23|title="Девятаев": Беги, летчик, беги|trans-title="Devyataev": Run, pilot, run|url=https://www.kino-teatr.ru/kino/art/pr/5953/|access-date=2021-05-02|website=Kino-Teatr|language=ru}} Another review from KinoReporter by Katya Zagvozdkina also affirmed the film is like Dunkirk whose German bomber aircraft dogfights give the audience vertigo.{{Cite web|last=Zagvozdkina|first=Katya|title=Первым делом самолеты: Военная драма "Девятаев" про подвиги летчика|trans-title=First of all, planes: The military drama "Devyataev" about the exploits of a pilot|url=https://kinoreporter.ru/pervym-delom-samolety-voennaya-drama-devyataev-pro-podvigi-letchika/|access-date=2021-05-02|website=KinoReporter|date=29 April 2021 |language=ru}} Reviewers from KinoReporter to Intermedia have applauded the performance of Pavel Priluchny: "But the pilot is incredibly close to all of us – and for this conscientiously played humanity-a low bow to Pavel Priluchny, the very fact of whose appearance in this film is already akin to a sign of quality."{{Cite web|date=2021-04-23|title=Рецензия на фильм "Девятаев": Павел Прилучный в бегах|trans-title=Review of the film "Devyataev": Pavel Priluchny on the run|url=https://www.intermedia.ru/news/357646|access-date=2021-05-02|website=www.intermedia.ru|language=ru}} A review at Film.ru noted the ending of the film could have been developed further adding in the missing years of Devyatayev as an outcast in the Soviet Union.{{Cite web|title=Первым делом – самолёты: рецензия на фильм "Девятаев"|url=https://www.film.ru/articles/pervym-delom-samolety-recenziya-na-film-devyataev|access-date=2021-05-02|website=www.film.ru}}
