Anna Mikhalkova has flashes, but it wobbles

I came away thinking about Anna Mikhalkova's work as Vera Pavlovna more than I expected. I like the idea of the performance more than the full result. Some scenes click, some just sit there. It is solid enough, but there are moments where it feels a bit on autopilot. I would not call it bad, just not as sharp as it could have been. The quieter stuff works better than the bigger beats. It is less about one scene and more about the overall aftertaste.
