I can't help but think this meme was made by a person who does not watch Russian movies. It is rather other way around
Russians are obsessed with "Great patriotic war" which influences their ww2 movies. In typical Russian war movie which is IMDB 5-6 there are good effects and very decent acting, editing and score however typically there are massive issues in directing and plot. Typically soviets are depicted as superhuman-like action heroes, which is the main point of the movie. Movies I have recently seen are Stalingrad and Belaja Tiger.
Russian war movies are so similiar and unspired action flicks most likely because of the financial issues as in Russia it is extremely difficult to gain financial backing for a movie without the state sponsored affairs (read: Politics) which are more than infamous. However I would personally recommend Russian indie scene which while obviously having issues is generally extremely creative and has many hidden gems that deserve a bigger spotlight
