Despite a hefty runtime and some unimpeachably glossy craft, the film is a mis-hit spike, delivering far less penetration than its toned, muscular surface promises.

Asian Movie Pulse

Like the sports movies of the 80s aims exclusively at entertainment by creating heroes under any circumstance, while the matches themselves are so impressive, that will remain in the memory of any viewer long after finishing the film.

Rated: 6.5

A breathtaking look at the sport and politics.

Eye for Film

Practically all of its big emotional beats depend on a sense of national pride or, at the very least on viewers identifying with the fictional characters to the extent that they want them to win, but character is exactly what it's lacking.

Rated: 2.5/5

A story of an unlikely friendship filled with encouragement and strength told through impressively sharp visuals is bound to please some audiences, even more so if you're a lover of all things sport and volleyball. Sadly, I felt the runtime on this one, and getting invested or feeling impacted was rare. Ultimately, it's just a story, and I felt as if I was benched to watch Leap from the sidelines without being fully part of it. Sure, there were a few solid moments, but I wished the drama and biography had impacted me on a deeper level.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

To be fair, this is a tear bomb movie of such a sport style. You know you will be touched by the toughness training and the harsh road to the Olympic champion. On the other hand, it seems to be too biography of the Women volleyball coach Long Ping.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
