n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

There aren't a lot of films about association football where football features so much. This has it all - football, drama, love, comedy, friendship and camaraderie. It's visually great, the music amazing, the main plot is good and there are enough sub-plots to keep the story interesting. The film is a bit of a light-hearted drama (not too heavy, deep or sad) and has moments of light comedy and comes off as being cute.It does play as a feel-good film without avoiding issues such as corruption, nationalism, what is the precursor to football hooliganism and so on, but it does not take those issues lightly either.Overall a great film and a must watch for people that are into history, football and the history of football.

Although the idea was good, directing was fine, and there were a few good actors, it's simply a bad movie. It's way too long. Instead of 141 minutes, it would make much more sense to cut it to less than 100. It's too boring, it never ends, and I just wanted to go home and do anything else. But I could't, because I watched it on a bus. Which was terrifying.And the story is terrible. It's not flowing, it doesn't make me want to know what will happen later in the movie. I also don't really care about the characters. Except the monkey. The monkey was cool.Lots of random scenes, maybe one or two funny situations. Then there are a few heavy, thriller parts, that don't look like a part of the same movie. Some unnecessary drama.Also, sometimes irritating music. Yes, violins are great, but that doesn't mean the audience wants to hear them every two minutes.So, it's watchable, and visually is great. But too long, not believable, without real story.

In one of the reviews I've read he/she complains having new flat TVin 1930. with Neymar on it. Maybe you should consider re-watching a movie ones again, because when you saw a modern TV it wasn't 1930., it was present, having Stanoje (little lame boy) telling story at his old age to another man, who wanted to make a movie about it.So... since you sh*t on the movie, which you obviously didn't understand, you should not give false information to others.Great movie, but the sense of humor is not that easy to understand to non Yugoslavian people, since the translation is too literal.

This is an excellent movie, with great story, great camera, great acting.... One more thing this is second part of th movie Montevideo - God Bless you, When I was looking for this movie on this site I just sawed review from ex Yugoslavia's republic called Bosnia and Herzegovina and in every single thing these people form Bosnia (Islamic part of Bosnia) are writing things that has nothing with movie, they write about politics and religious views an in a matter of a fact this film has nothing to do with it and its true story what happened what you can easily find evidence in a 1 minute. In first part of film in that time 1930 was Yugoslavian Kingdom and Croatian players didn't want to play on this world cup and that is a fact that only Serbian players actually did play on this world cup. Its easy to find which players played for every country for example Yugoslavia beat Brasil 2:1 So stunning movie really non political and very easy for watching, I recommend you to watch it an I'm sure you will like it if you like football (in USA soccer). Rating in my opinion pure 10.
