Alexey, you are wrong! You are exhibiting the first negative impression of the film, which only deepened during the full viewing. The eccentric Woland is a bit old, but where does his eccentricity manifest? The hysterical Margarita – I didn't notice... The cowardly Yeshua – the only criticism might be about Bezrukov, but it's definitely not about cowardice; he is portrayed, as far as I remember, almost word for word from the book. The man in the French coat – he was in the book, as far as I remember; they just introduced him a bit more in the film; he embodies the NKVD agents. Overall, the film is focused on atmosphere; if you don't appreciate the atmosphere, then you won't like it...
