Set during the opening days of World War II on the Eastern Front. Its main cast are a group of Soviet teenagers with extraordinary abilities; the teenagers have been drafted to form a special unit to fight the invading German army. They are opposed by a Schutzstaffel (SS) officer who is attempting to raise from the dead a supernatural army of crusaders from the 12th-century Order of the Sacred Cross and enlist them in the Nazi cause.
I've just watched this movie which has been widely advertised as the first Russian anime. Why there should be a Russian anime if we already have a great animation legacy of our own is another question. There're just too many things wrong with this movie apart from being a "Russian anime".
And first and foremost, it's an insult to Russian history and the Sacred War. I bet people would be speaking about it a lot... What makes it worse are the occasional comments from the "experts": historians, psychiatrists and war veterans, only the latter being the real people, everyone else being portrayed by the actors. They try their best to make the movie's story seem based on real events. Some people would take it as fiction and some, mainly the young audience, may take it as truth, which is quite worrying. And I really pity people of the war generation, our grandfathers and grandmothers who has seen the Great War with their own eyes and who might watch Firs Squad one day.
Even if the Russians are behind the movie, the Soviet Union of the 40th is portrayed like in an average Hollywood movie. Excluding probably such clichés as drinking vodka...
The story of is quite linear, simplistic and full of plot holes and plot devices. In a nutshell, a Russian girl Nadya who possesses supernatural psychic powers must team up with her dead friends to stop the undead Teutonic knights from changing the course of history. This is all there is, nothing more, nothing less. This movie has an unbelievable amount of deus ex machina and other devices, including:
SPOILER ALERT!!!
-during Nazi bombing Nadya is saved by a monk who for some reason happens to hang around the battlefield. This monk never introduces himself, but is so well aware of girl's quest that he gives her further instructions and even a horse which takes her directly to Moscow. The monk pointlessly sacrifices himself to protect escaping Nadya.
-in order to resurrect the evil knights Ahnenerbe needs a powerful artefact which just happens to be in one of the member's possession.
-Soviets, in return, need to somehow send Nadya to the world of the dead. An appropriate machine just happens to be waiting in the basement of the Kremlin. (Why they need a machine of such kind apart from using it in Nadya's mission is another question).
-when in the other world Nadya is captured by the evil knights. Their leader recognizes her as a simple "mortal"(using his Predator-like vision mode) and sends her to the butcher. What? A random monk knows that this girl is so special and a mighty undead knight doesn't even question how she's got to the world of the dead in the first place?
-of course, Nadya is saved by her dead friends who arrive just at the right time to a well-guarded knights'castle.
-upon her return to our world Nadya sees that the monk who presumably died is alive and well. He's there only to share a couple more words of wisdom. Pffff...
-during the final battle as the dark knights erupt from under the ice of the frozen lake Nadya's friends find a way to get into our world and save the day(of course!).(By the way, one of the veterans says that they were facing Nazis on the ice of the lake and were fighting for every trench. Is it possible to make trenches in the lake?)
SPOILER END
The characters are as uninteresting as the story. The main heroine seems quite apathetic in what she's doing. It's not that she's passionately fighting for the Motherland, no, she just follows other people's orders, that's all. They tried to give her some depth trough a series of flashbacks, but they are not touching at all. I think that I didn't care at all for this character or her mission. Her friends have below zero personality. There is: love interest, funny guy... and two other kids, but it's hard to determine their roles, probably a tough guy and a tough gal. I don't even know why they're needed in this movie(except for deus-ex-machina-saving-the-day purpose). Their relationship with the main character is quite blank. They were good friends... So? Secondary characters and villains are even worse.
I'm not into anime at all and to my eye animation and visuals were quite average. Nothing stylish, stunning or breathtaking.
In conclusion, First Squad is a quite tasteless mix of Japanese sword fights, undead Pioneers, demonic knights with the Great Patriotic War on the background, with simplistic story and one-dimensional characters. I probably would have said, "Hey, if you're not gonna take it seriously and if you have a good sense of humor, go see First Squad!", if it wasn't such a painful topic involved. Our Scared War, the Great Patriotic War, is no laughing matter. And if people who has made this anime don't understand this... well, I pity them.
I'll give First Squad two stars just for the animators' effort.
First and foremost, I must assert that the live-action interviews of this film do not "interrupt" the story. Rather, they are used as a framing device to further the telling of the story, and to give rather tacit nods to the direction the story is headed. They add fascinating detail and lend weight to scenes that might otherwise have passed unnoticed or unremarked upon. Additionally, the live-action segments are used to tell the story as a mockumentary, a sort of play on the countless World War II documentaries that exist as a means of telling a story.
Secondly, the notion that this work is offensive or disrespectful toward the Russian Sacred War is totally nonsense. The story holds Russia in a sort of reverence and depicts the Nazi forces in a negative light at all times. Its depiction of the war is fairly grim and realistic considering the fantastical elements added, but if that's the issue, then the war itself should be even more offensive to those who witnessed it first hand. If the issue is the fantastical elements, then that suggests that any fictional depiction of a real-world war is inherently offensive and wrong, as any fictional depiction includes elements that weren't present in the real world. The Men Who Stare at Goats, Hellboy, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, 300, Inglourious Basterds, Apocalypse Now, Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, Braveheart, The Patriot, Dr. Strangelove, the list goes on. All of these are, by this logic, incredibly insensitive and inherently offensive depictions of events that are beyond fiction because of their very nature. To assert that any fantastical depiction of a real world event is somehow unacceptable is to actively limit and suppress the medium.
**SPOILERS BELOW** Finally, I must address people's complaints with the film's ending. Nadya survives, the titular Moment of Truth is swayed in favor of the Russians, the balance of World War II subtly tips against the Nazis, the Russian captain survives, Ahnenerbe's plot has failed, and von Wolff retreats back into the Gloomy Valley, taking his sword with him. To hear people describe this ending, you'd think the Nazis had won and the film had just ended, but that's not the case at all. As I outlined, von Wolff is defeated. He retreats from the world of the living, taking the only thing allowing him to enter our world - his sword - with him. Ahnenerbe was only able to bring him back to determine the outcome of the Moment of Truth because they had his sword and now they don't. He's gone, effectively dead, but people still claim he somehow got off Scott-free. Another thing, Nadya's friends were also dead. Those in the Gloomy Valley died as soldiers and can be brought back through black magic or psychic connections to determine the course of history in predetermined Moments of Truth, thereby continuing to fight for their country with a chance to die permanently and move beyond the Valley. To assert that Nadya's friends disappearing somehow leaves something inconclusive is totally incorrect. Either they returned to the Gloomy Valley or they ascended into the afterlife beyond it. That was their purpose in the film, to help resolve the Moment of Truth, and it would make no sense for the movie to treat them any differently from anyone else returning from the Gloomy Valley. To have them resurrect and stay in the mortal world would be extremely inconsistent and cheapen death. What's more, to assert the movie ended too soon is to disregard the entire crux of the movie. The whole point was to sway the Moment of Truth in favor of Russia, with the First Squad getting involved only because Ahnenerbe involved warriors from the Gloomy Valley first. Once the Moment is passed and Russia is victorious, there's nothing left in the story to be told. Nadya won. The mission was a success.
To put my feelings simply, the film was a fascinating departure from the normal trappings of the genre, paying homage to World War II documentaries through live-action interviews with decent actors and real WWII veterans as a framing device, that quickly and succinctly told the story it set out from the very beginning to tell and ended exactly when it should have. I feel some of the dissent people have over the film is largely based on the ending because it doesn't feel like a happy ending. There's no bright shiny rainbow, Nadya doesn't describe how she spends the rest of her days happy, and her friends don't miraculously come back to life. To dislike a film for playing a straight, no-frills but still positive ending instead of a saccharine perfect happy ending is totally nonsense, as that too limits what filmmakers can do. If this stigma against a serious, straight-faced ending is because the work is a cartoon, then that speaks to the bias against serious animated works in general, not to the quality of this work.
The voice acting was spot-on, the sound effects fantastic, the character design and animation eye-catching and appealing, the story straight forward and unflinching, and the resolution tonally perfect.
My only nitpick is that Nadya had a katana for no reason and the monk's survival seems unnecessary. Other than that, everything was spot-on.
