Wissenswertes
As Raivo gets acquainted with the group, one of them cracks that the Russian elephant is the best friend of the Finnish elephant, a line which leaves the Finn completely bewildered. This is a reference to a well-known Soviet joke poking fun at academics whose adherence to the party line often resulted in nonsense. The joke: Competing to write a book on African elephants, a Frenchman produces a volume on the love lives of elephants; a German writes a 21-volume series titled "A Brief Introduction to the African Elephant", and the Soviet writer comes up with just one sentence: "The African elephant is the best friend of the Soviet elephant."

For anyone who has ever been to Russia or is amused by the hijinks of drunken men, this film is a must-see. While the film hits on a lot of stereotypes, many of the characters are right-on, especially the Army general. The plot moves well and the conversation does not lag - these Russian actors are quiete funny.
