Jose Solís Common Sense Media A sports film can be technically proficient and well-acted, but that won't make a difference if the plot lacks dramatic tension May 14, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Siwoo J 영화를 위한 영화 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/14/25 Full Review Michael W This Go movie was really good. Lee Byung-hun, Yoo Ah-in, Moon Jeong-hee, Jo Woo-jin, and the rest of the cast did a fantastic job in this movie. This true about the Go Master Cho Hun-hyun and his student Lee Chang-ho playing each other in a fierce Go competition was dramatic and mesmerizing. It's about beating your opponent even if it's your student or teacher. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. It's a must see. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/25/25 Full Review Tony N The movie was highly dramatic, intense and authentic. Forget the early critical critic comments. Movie watchers will love this movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/22/25 Full Review Young K I thought it was an incredible movie. The emotional story of the teacher vs student was more important than the Go story Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/20/25 Full Review Tim R It was ok, but I wanted more details/info/strategy on the game of Go. I do play Go and it is so popular in Asian countries, not so much in the west. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/08/25 Full Review Read all reviews
