\u201cThe Crew is an all-out action disaster movie that kept me gripped, intrigued and hooked from start to finish,\u201d writes Back to the Movies, 4\/5 stars. <\/div>\n

Los Angeles, CA – June 13, 2018 –<\/strong> “The action becomes relentless. The movie never holds up for one second and that’s exactly what you want as a viewer.” – Back to the Movies<\/a> on ‘THE CREW’.<\/em><\/p>\n

Award-winning writer-director Nikolay Lebedev<\/em>’s (‘Legend No. 19’) explosive Russian blockbuster ‘THE CREW’ (originally titled ‘Ekipazh’) will disembark to the U.S. for VOD platforms on June 25th<\/sup>, brought exclusively by TriCoast Entertainment, reports Back to the Movies.<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/strong> When a young pilot, Alexey Gushchin (Danila Kozlovsky<\/em>), is discharged from Russia’s military service and aircraft school, he receives a second chance to redeem his aviator dreams by joining Russia’s passenger airplane program alongside the firm crew commander, Leonid Zinchenko (Vladimir Mashkov<\/em>) and the beautiful co-pilot, Alexandra (Agne Grudyte<\/em>). But, when the aircraft’s radio receiver alerts them of a disastrous and catastrophic erupting volcano “reducing a city to ashes”, the team must learn to work together to fulfill their courageous and selfless roles as pilots – to execute a successful rescue mission to land safely and evacuate the survivors.<\/p>\n

Like an “end-to-end spectacle” you never want to end, “The Crew stored all that energy and brilliance and dragged it out for the duration keeping you hooked throughout.” <\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/em><\/p>\n

Lebedev<\/em>’s action-packed disaster film grips viewers from beginning to end, with stunning cinematography and the utilization of high-quality special effects, eventually allowing viewers to embark on the perilous rescue mission alongside the flight crew. Created with “cinematic brilliance” as the second-ever Russian film shot using a 3D IMAX camera, creating the sense of “everything feeling seamless and deadly realistic.” Unlike other disaster films in America, ‘THE CREW’ contains spectacular VFX graphics and CGI stunts that elevate Lebedev<\/em>’s flight-drama as “images just pop off the screen”.<\/p>\n

A disaster movie “needs to project a sense of doom, death, and disaster and The Crew does that in spades.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Accompanied by “beautiful cinematography mixed with a production value so much higher than it’s budget may suggest,” Lebedev<\/em>’s flight-drama has “action sequences are right up there with such movies as Deepwater Horizon<\/em>,” exploding ‘THE CREW’ as this summer’s must-see action flick. “Hats off to all those involved in making the film look as vibrantly stunning as it does.”<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/em><\/p>\n

Incredibly successful worldwide, ‘THE CREW’ grossed<\/em> about $23 million in Russia alone, was Russia’s best-performing homegrown film of 2016, and has remained the third top-grossing movie in Russia overall. At the 2017 APKIT Awards, ‘THE CREW’ was awarded seven-prestigious wins – Special Prize, Golden Eagle Award – Best Feature Film, Best Visual Effects, Best Supporting Actor, Best Music, Best Film Editing, <\/em>and Best Feature Film<\/em>. Thanks to the performances, cinematography and economical edit, ‘THE CREW’ is one joy ride you won’t want to miss. ‘THE CREW will be available on U.S. VOD platforms June 25th<\/sup>. <\/p>\n

‘THE CREW’ featuring an authentic and fantastic Russian cast with “wonderful performances” by Danila Kozlovsky<\/em>, Vladimir Mashkov<\/em> (‘Mission: Impossible’, ‘Daddy’), and Lithuanian actress, Agne Grudyte<\/em> (‘Nyukhach’, ‘Single Valentine’). Alongside, supports Sergey Gazarov<\/em> (‘Revizor’, ‘12’), Katerina Shiptsa<\/em> (‘Metro’, ‘Project’, ‘Gemini’), Sergey Shakurov<\/em> (‘Brezhnev’, ‘Velikaya’) and Sergey Romanovich<\/em> (‘Pitch’).
