ma'ark t A great mix of history, sport and emotion. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member De la serie de documentales 30/30 de ESPN, Once Brothers nos cuenta la historia de 2 pioneros en la NBA. Se trata de 2 jugadores internacionales que fueron capaces de mostrar su talento en la liga más famosa del mundo. Uno es Vlade Divac y el otro Drazen Petrovic. ¿Lo curioso? Quienes un tiempo fueron amigos inseparables en la selección yugoslava, terminaron por separarse luego de que post-conflicto de los Balcanes, ambos representaran distintas selecciones. Muy recomendable. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Great ESPN documental about two basket players friendship, one Serbian the other Croatian that were members of the former Yugoslavian national team that won the world championship, a friendship destroyed by the Balkans war. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazing story about Yugoslavian basketball. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member A good documentary, worth watching to see how even the closest friendships are affacted by war. Brilliantly exposes the mindless divisions of society that are caused by politics and war. It's a real sad story but nicely filmed. Well worth watching. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member you better watch it if you like Balkan's and basketball. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
