I then ran a parasite scan with Unmask Parasites on kinopoisk.ru, and it is clean. Results: Unmask Parasites scan for the site kinopoisk.ru.
I also checked kinopoisk.ru on VirusTotal, and it is clean. Results: VirusTotal scan for the site Kinopoisk.ru.
In conclusion, the site kinopoisk.ru is safe to visit. Sucuri listed it as a medium security risk, but I can see that’s only because of a spam recaptcha redirect which is not a problem. No malware was found during the Sucuri scan. And no security vendor associated with VirusTotal has flagged the site as malicious. OVERALL GRADE: Relatively Safe.
