Because of the fact that Red Cliff is also shown in Russian theatres the site administration follows the premiers in the country.

So far some Moscow movie-theatres announced the premier of the Red Cliff. Most of the theatres announce August 6, 2009 as the day of the show (kinoafisha).

Here is the list of some:

5 Zvezd – release date: August 6, 2009.

Formula Kino – release date: August 20, 2009.

Romanov Cinema – release date: already in theatres.
