Audience Member It is not without its flaws (especially in the end), but still this is a tense and important film that openly speaks about a dark chapter in Brazilian history when conformism was the norm and there was nothing better than soccer to distract people from what was happening. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Apesar do eventual tom novelesco e da falta de maiores sutilezas, denuncia com eficiência o contraste entre o Brasil vendido pela ditadura e o Brasil violentado pela ditadura. Grande ênfase para a fantástica tensão criada em determinadas sequências e para o bom desempenho de todo o elenco (sem falar claro, das icônicas montagens que mesclam a violência dos militares com as vitórias da seleção brasileira). Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member A disturbing and realist portrait of a dark time in Brazil history and the terror of the psychological and fisical torture against the people that fight to be free again. Fresh. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
