Dvizhenie Vverkh - Sprung an die Spitze

Sure the movie is entertaining, given the fact that it plagiarized Miracle (2004). If you really think about it the movie makes very little sense both story wise and characters' motivation. The relationships of the characters have no actual development, there are a lot of plots that were put in simply for the dramatic effect. It is an insult to the actual people that are portrayed in the movie how they change all of them, almost if not all the characteristics of the players are made up and don't actually represent the people behind the names. Maybe worst of all is the advertising of the movie, getting called "a documentary" or saying that it is an accurate retelling, when it couldn't be farther from the truth. The director prides himself on the accuracy of the movie when a lot of things in the movie are anything but the truth. If you want to watch a better movie, with character motivations that make sense and a plot that doesn't contradict itself watch "Miracle".

The film is not bad, if you don't know the truth. Anton Megerdichev took real people under real names and brazenly lies, and when they ask him about historicity, he says that the film is artistic , but the film does not work as an artistic one. Very good camerawork, but this is the only good thing in this film

Tip:one-time viewing.

On April 19, 2017, the mother and son of Kondrashina and Ovchinnikov filed for Studio "TriTe" Nikita Mikhalkov in the Presnensky District Court of Moscow lawsuit" on the prohibition of the dissemination of information about private life, "the satisfaction of which by a court decision of September 4, 2017 plaintiffs were refused (due to the fact that during the consideration of the case the defendant made changes in the scenario taking into account the circumstances stated in the statement of claim).

So you see, these changes were made to avoid getting sued!

For me it's a great drama and i's surprised it only has a 6.9 rating.

The first time I watched this movie, I liked it. I would probably recommend it and give it 7-8 star review. Thanks to BadComedian's review I realized that this movie is full of disinformation and crap. Think for yourselves.

This is perhaps the best Russian film in the last 20 years!

Stunning movie Interesting, lively, funny, dramatic. In comparison with the previous work - Legend 17, the creators paid much attention not to one character, but to the entire team, where each person, not the screen, also paid much attention to the coach and his family. I empathized, laughed and cried. In the cinema, in which I was, the whole audience stood applauding.

I do not know if this film was released in other languages, but I advise all fans of the sports drama genre to get acquainted with this amazing work.

Sorry for my bad english.
