Some Americans will watch this documentary and think, “Wow, a country where its government is ran by an unhinged dictator that pumps dangerous propaganda into its news cycle, deliberately targets the youth, and silences anyone that attempts to protest? What a terrible place…
Joe AFeb 1, 2025I really hope Pavel Talankin will be okay. He took a huge risk making a film that Vladimir Putin would consider treasonous. I can't believe the risks he took. Pavel is a teacher filled with positivity, warmth and a kind of endearing dorky sense of humor. He's an individual…

Mr. Nobody Against Putin is a groundbreaking work that serves as an example for other documentaries. However, in relation to its national and emotional depth, it was somewhat shallow. Honestly, it touched me so much, but I also had the feeling that the story could have been…
rickOct 15, 2025It's like that scene in Cabaret where you realize the whole bar is full of Nazis, but over and over again for an hour and a half.
johnMar 22, 2025- мы настолько ебанулись? - ну это сверху спустили мы наверное привыкли к новостным заголовкам, к слову «патриотизм» в том его значении, в котором его теперь используют, привыкли к тому, что школа – это давно уже не про знание, а про воспитание «правильного» и «нужного»…

Commanders don't win wars. Teachers win wars. -- Vladimir Putin "Look what awaits you if you are apolitical, if you are weak, if you give in to self-censorship." — Pavel Talankin Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear glasses and have a somewhat questionable,…
EvilMonkeyToesOct 21, 2025Really compelling doc. Good companion piece to something like Navalny. A teacher, tires of feeling like a propagandist for the Putin regime and begins documenting the militarization of his school. Seems like such a hard realization to come to, to find that the country you…

This unassuming, novice videographer becomes a filmmaker overnight delivering a perspective on a war that most don’t get a chance to see. It’s organic and raw, building unintentional tension. It makes you think how fragile democracy is and how quickly things can become abnormal
“Mr. Nobody Against Putin" is a fascinating documentary that gives a unique, offbeat glimpse into the Ukrainian war—like if Jojo Rabbit grew up and got serious. Eye-opening, intense, and entirely unforgettable.

Purely on a craft level, “Mr. Nobody Against Putin” is skillful and engrossing, never more so than when it captures wrenchingly painful moments in people’s lives with a detachment that keeps the focus on the subjects rather than shifting to Talankin.
While the plight of Ukraine is undeniably horrific, Mr. Nobody Against Putin shows a very real cost and the damaging ripple effect this invasion will have on Russian civilians.
Plenty of the film feels vital—its observations of a nation’s shifting attitude towards war, towards hate, is crushing and familiar.
