Disaster Strikes The CREW

While recent events are certainly going to pose challenges when it comes to selling an air disaster film in Russia it certainly appears as though director Nikolay Lebedev has delivered a high quality one with his upcoming Crew.

A young pilot gets kicked out of the military air force after breaching an absurd order. He starts working as a second pilot in the civil aviation. Always straight-forward, he is not on best terms with his new colleagues.

During a flight to Asia his crew receives an alert about an earthquake on the volcanic island and takes a decision to fly a dangerous rescue mission. Only together the crew can survive the disaster.

Based on the trailer I'd say there's a bit of Bruckheimer in the DNA of this one, which really seems to draw its strength from the super glossy visuals. Check out the Russian trailer below!
