Since I can not relate to the main character or rather how he is portrayed in the beginning, I can't tell you how you will feel about him, if you see yourself in him. Who am I to say you need an intervention? Exactly ... only you or a loved one of yours can say ... and do that.
Now the poster showed me a pic that threw me off when the movie began. It looked like the movie was playing in the past, so I was a bit clueless as to what was going on. But I was immediately sucked into the movie, by the main character ... because of how despicable he behaves and acts around other humans. Total disregard for any of their feelings, very self centred and egotistical ... blaming his father more or less for it. We never really get much into that ... but even if there is truth to that, his father cares ... a lot.
So much, that he does that intervention I mentioned earlier. And it brings his son in touch with his feelings ... and it really grounds him. It is a bit like a Jim Carrey movie ... if you've seen you'll figure out which one I mean, mood wise. All very well played - and while we can guess where the movie is heading (as in predictable), it is the enjoyable journey to that finish line that makes this as entertaining as it is.

Hardly 8
There isn't like that thing wouldn't happen in real life. Just love the concept and story. So i gave 8. (It's just comment to save for me, why it requires that much longer text....)
From hero to zero...
"Son of a Rich" is a Comedy movie in which we watch a spoiled young man thinking that he is above law when suddenly finding himself on a 19th century village as a simple peasant. He has to understand what happened and from the 21st century found himself on the 19th century.
I found this movie very interesting and it contained plenty of humorous scenes that made me laugh. In addition to this, it has to be mentioned that the direction which was made by Klim Shipenko was very good and he succeeded on presenting his main character very well, something that made the audience easy to relate to him and follow him on this adventure. The interpretations of Milos Bikovic who played as Grisha, Aleksandra Bortich who played as Liza and Sergey Sotserdotskiy who played as Proshka were good. To sum up, I have to say that "Son of a Rich" is an entertaining movie and I recommend you to spend your time with it.
