It's obvious the cat has more sense than any of them. Maybe. |

That's right, cat - you escape into the past where you will be safe. Are you sure about this? |

Oh, I like this chase, but it is not the funniest thing in the movie. |

That's right, cat - you escape into the past where you will be safe. Is it any safer in the past? More likely to be put in a stew if you ssk me. Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

What's that big stick? is it significant? Or just a stick?
"You're not sulking, I hope?"

Would any of you use a time machine? Not M'Virn, I'm sure. Why wouldn't I? How do you know I haven't already used one? Because as mad as the world is, I think you may tread on a special buttetfly and make it madder...

What's that big stick? is it significant? Or just a stick? The one that the tsar holds? It is one of the symbols of power. |

I don't like that nickname of the tsar Grozny is translated like terrible. It is more like severe. Ivan the severe,? That doesn't sound right. Like Ivan the slightly angry. Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

Because as mad as the world is, I think you may tread on a special buttetfly and make it madder... I'm not scared of any buttetfly, whatever that may be. Some sort of cross between a Red Admiral and tsetse fly perhaps? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

This chase is like an episode of Monument Valley. A mix of Keystone cops and the Spanish Inquisition? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

The bells are playing the song Evening Bells, and then it is Moscow Nights. Of course, the thief can't go without playing it to the end.

The same actor plays Bunsha and the tsar. Bunsha has obvious speech defects unlike the tsar. |

This Fedya is played by Saveliy Kramarov who also was in some American movies. Maybe you know the movie 2010: The Year We Make Contact. I haven't seen it, but it is said that he played there. |

Vanyusha is also short for Ivan Excuse me? Eight letters instead of four? Then Russians must have a different definition of 'short' ! "You're not sulking, I hope?"

The singing is great, but I'm not sure the song is as innocent as it sounds.
