Gundi: Legend of Love

A must watch with jaw dropping plot. The actors are just unbelievable and the hype is really worth it. Even if you don't support Levski Sofia the film is spectacular because it's a story about love, about character, about communists regime, the poor, then the rich, the never the greedy. True to the fans until his last breath. The best film that Bulgaria has produced , definitely worthy of international recognition. It's humorous, romantic and veeeeery intense. Keeps you at the edge of your seat after the 20th minute. Having the film settle in, I can't find more words to admire the amazing job they have done so I will just say one last thing: watch it!

There are rarely any good Bulgarian movies but this is definitely one of them. Following the beautiful but tragic story of Georgi Asparuhov this movie takes us on a journey through the past where life can be both simple and hard at the same time. It shows us that even in communist Bulgaria football talents at the likes of Asparuhov can stand out. The passion for football and the love for the special person in your life is presented in such a great way by the two main actors - Pavel Ivanov (Gundi) and Alexandra Svilenova (Lita). Also let's not forget that the real Velichka Markova portrayed by Alexandra is also part of the production and this makes the movie as genuine as it could be regarding historical details. Everything related to production and writing is on a such high level that it may as well compete with other non-Bulgarian movies with a much higher budget.

I am no PFC Levski fan, as a matter of fact I am not Bulgarian football fan at all. However I am a cinema fan , lover and phil. This is the first even Bulgarian production that i don't see even 1 actor to "over play" his role. Amazing cinematographic masterpiece, story telling and script. Pavel Ivanov is brilliant and genius as ever, he deserves a world stage! Ivan and Andrey, this time you really, really have done it. This is it, peak of your careers, cherish and live this moment. Alexanrda Svilenova, GENIUS role! I really want to mention Stoyan Radev, after Pavel and Alexanra, this was a world class performance, you won't go unnoticed! Much love to all the crew and actors, you will be all remembered, next to the big names of our cinema in the past prior 1990. Thank you, al!

It is so much more than a movie about football, so much more than a film about Gundi.
