S R An interesting story I didn't know much about, but it was almost tv movie level of quality. It did well telling the story, but it came across as cheesy / cliche. So odd for a Croatian to take a a Hungarian focused story. I saw it at the library and wanted to give it a shot since I enjoy the history of football around this time. SLC DVD. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/01/25 Full Review KB B This was such an intense and powerful film. It's definitely worth the watch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/29/23 Full Review Audience Member terrible acting worse dialogue. Painting a blue wall blue there are no layers no subtext, and the lines are blend explanatory like talking to a young child. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member I still have no words. The story, based of truth and the acting of the cast.... How can one put into words when there aren't any. Thank you. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
