Admiral (Russian: Адмиралъ; stylized to resemble pre-revolutionary Russian, modern spelling: Russian: Адмирал) is a 2008 biopic about Alexander Kolchak, a vice admiral in the Imperial Russian Navy and leader of the anti-communist White movement during the Russian Civil War. The film also depicts the love triangle between the Admiral, his wife, and the poet Anna Timiryova.

An extended version of the movie was made into a 10-part TV mini-series which was shown by Channel One in 2009.
