So, 'Firing Range' is one of those curious entries from the mid-80s that feels like it belongs to a different era. The atmosphere is heavy, almost claustrophobic, with its focus on military life and the moral dilemmas that come with it. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to soak in the tension as the inventor reveals the true purpose of his weapon—there’s a weight to it. The performances don’t overshadow the themes but rather serve to enhance this sense of ethical conflict. The practical effects are understated yet effective, lending a gritty realism. It’s based on a Sever Gansovsky short story, which gives it a layered narrative. A film that sits quietly in the background of war dramas but has its own unique voice.
Interesting take on military ethics.Unique pacing that draws you in.Solid performances complement the themes.
