There wasn’t really much of a plot, was there?

What there was a lot of was excruciatingly long rambling mono- and dialogues with unrealistic emotions and unexplainable character motivations and actions.

Did like the Ace Ventura scene at the funeral. And the cool cold sadistic pre-KGB cop. And the mom. Poor her.

I wonder how it's still relatable in the 21st century. We as a human, collectively, have been able to improve ourselves. Dostoevsky would have been ashamed if he were alive.
