Montevideo, vidimo se!

I loved this film, but there are some mistakes in it concerning the Brazilian team. In the 30's there were almost no African Brazilians playing football. In fact, the first one was Benedicto, playing for Vasco Da Gama and for the national team that went to Uruguai. My father used to tell his story, adding that after him, black players started being accepted. The Fluminense Football Club had a black player who used to paint his body with white powder so that he could play. It gave the team the nickname of "face powder", which is still used today. The clothes the players use in the film are wrong too. They are Brazilians after all, and not Africans. In spite of these mistakes, and many others, the film is very good and brings about many questions related to the world cup that still prevail...

This is an excellent movie, with great story, great camera, great acting.... One more thing this is second part of th movie Montevideo - God Bless you, When I was looking for this movie on this site I just sawed review from ex Yugoslavia's republic called Bosnia and Herzegovina and in every single thing these people form Bosnia (Islamic part of Bosnia) are writing things that has nothing with movie, they write about politics and religious views an in a matter of a fact this film has nothing to do with it and its true story what happened what you can easily find evidence in a 1 minute. In first part of film in that time 1930 was Yugoslavian Kingdom and Croatian players didn't want to play on this world cup and that is a fact that only Serbian players actually did play on this world cup. Its easy to find which players played for every country for example Yugoslavia beat Brasil 2:1

So stunning movie really non political and very easy for watching, I recommend you to watch it an I'm sure you will like it if you like football (in USA soccer). Rating in my opinion pure 10.

In one of the reviews I've read he/she complains having new flat TVin 1930. with Neymar on it.

Maybe you should consider re-watching a movie ones again, because when you saw a modern TV it wasn't 1930., it was present, having Stanoje (little lame boy) telling story at his old age to another man, who wanted to make a movie about it.

So... since you sh*t on the movie, which you obviously didn't understand, you should not give false information to others.

Great movie, but the sense of humor is not that easy to understand to non Yugoslavian people, since the translation is too literal.

Just watched this movie and have to say it was very good... it reminds me on those good times when you watch old Hollywood movies. p.s. Petar Matic if you say this there was no Serbia at this time because it didn't exist at this time, well guess what there, was no Serbian aggression towards those you mentioned because war broke in Yugoslavia and neither Serbia and others existed at that time, so save us from your nationalistic crap here which gave us those things in the 90-tis.This is movie forum where people from whole world come because of the movies not to listen to your crap that they threw from their countries long time ago. cheers everybody...

There aren't a lot of films about association football where football features so much. This has it all - football, drama, love, comedy, friendship and camaraderie. It's visually great, the music amazing, the main plot is good and there are enough sub-plots to keep the story interesting. The film is a bit of a light-hearted drama (not too heavy, deep or sad) and has moments of light comedy and comes off as being cute.

It does play as a feel-good film without avoiding issues such as corruption, nationalism, what is the precursor to football hooliganism and so on, but it does not take those issues lightly either.

Overall a great film and a must watch for people that are into history, football and the history of football.
