Siberia is effectively well-paced, offers instances of tension, and doesn’t cheat at the end.

The reason to see Siberia is, quite simply, the presence of Keanu Reeves.

The trailer made this actually look like a cheap Wick spinoff with enough action and thrills for a VOD film to keep Your attention.Every actual action shot in the trailer is really only 2 separate :30 total sequences in the beginning and in the end of this film. Instead it's Keanu in a more reserved and boring Wick persona venturing around a bleak Siberian environment of rich Russian mobsters and a very annoying sex crazed Russian woman that is unconvincing. The plot drags around and really is cliche as they come with stolen diamonds and blown mobster kingpin deals with utterly banal dialogue. The ending comes abruptly with no real conclusion and the film is over. While Keanu delivers his signature acting style that's servacable for the most part, there's really no reason to watch this. It's essentially John Wick on a depressing vacation without any action or excitement Obsessed with a Russian chick.

Siberia slogs along like the failed pilot for a poorly-thought out cable series, one with Eastern European development incentives but without enough drama, incident, intrigue or plot to justify its running time.

Stiffly scripted and stoically directed, Siberia shamelessly squanders the particular appeal of its charismatic lead and wastes an inordinate amount of screen time going practically nowhere, except undoubtedly right to VOD.

Director Matthew Ross does the near-impossible in Siberia: He turns a Keanu Reeves vehicle about sex, diamonds and the Russian mob into a dreary, endless slog.

The film has the tone and look of a direct-to-video feature, and some shots of Keanu Reeves are so waxen that the actor almost looks rotoscoped.

Though I like Keanu Reeves a lot, I have to say Siberia is not a strong record in his filmography, something close to Knock Knock (2015) in terms of exploitation. Like my fav author, Stephen King, when you output a lot, sometimes you output questionable stuff. Siberia is not horrible by any means, but the bland ending is just too "in your face"; that combined with a somewhat forgetable plotline makes Siberia just be a try-hard heavy-drama thriller.

Es geht um Diamanten, Russen, Schiessen und Sex. Diese Themenkombination ist schon lange out. Die Erzählweise ist nicht so gut, die einzelnen Szenen und Schauplätze wirken langweilig.

I leaned Russian diamond industry in Siberia.This movie also educated me about corruption of Russian politics.
I had to watch too many sex scenes.This is not supposed to be a **** was hard to follow the plot due to Russian accent English and subtitles.

Why????? I love Keanu Reeves and some of his movies are absolutely my all time favorites (John Wick, Matrix...). What the hell is this? Nothing is happening. Really bad dialogues and absolutely no action. I kept looking at my watch and was wondering when this would be over. Don't get me wrong, his acting was good but I have no clue why he accepted to join this project.
