Movie is just perfect, no more words needed. Dragan Bjelogrlic will change serbian cinematographi.
got lot of flaws in this Serbian movie. All the actors were nicely cast and performed. But I happened to noticed that there were lot of items that should not and could not exist appeared in this movie: Plastic molded tables and chairs outside of the tavern, cigarettes with filters, complicated patterned nylon pantyhose that only modern days could make them. But these young guys who played the early time soccer team were pretty good and they could play raw eggs with their legs, thighs, and feet were just fascinating. The romances between two couples were a bit lame and contrite. There were quite a lot of comedian-like characters in this movie, but thank God, I sat through out the whole movie and actually enjoyed it quite a bit. All the young men and women were quite handsome and pretty, one of the reasons that kept this movie worth watching to the end.
I'm sure people who voted for this movie were emotionally invested in it for reasons not coming from the art of film making. Because what one gets is a movie poorly constructed, so poorly acted that it feels plastic, with historical goofs too many to be worth listing, overdramatizing to the point turning one stomach over, empty dialogue ... it comes so close to Bollywood B-class movies that it hurts, even having the all musical intermezzos.
In the end it was made, and people from the ex-Yugoslav countries surely liked it enough, but I can't see how this could be ever considered a real movie anywhere else in the world.
I have great respect for the Yugoslav film making, but this is only a shade of that.

An amazing masterpiece who contain everything make you feel better, a lot of good comedy(thing very very rarely. Meet in the last 30 years , a little drama , a little adventure, a little romance , a brilliant screenwriting , , amazinng actors , not those inferior formes of life who "play"in Hollywood in the last 40 years and.win a lot of money for nothing, an excelent soundtruck. All the phrases of this movie are memorable .I MENTION JUST ONE OF IT. : WHEN IT'S ABOUT NEW TREND AND DUMB STUFF WE SERBIANS ARE THE FIRST..SOCCER WERE STILL NEW..In those times on the field play. Don't play the rich mans., and they are watched by us the poor nes. Now it's the opposite"How much true from a mouth of a 10 y.o. Boootblack boy.
If you never have a vision bigger then yourself, you shouldn't watch this movie, because it may looks too romantic, too limited for you. If the present time and its rate is the maximum of your wishes, then you shouldn't watch it. If you are too concerned about a connotations it could contains, for the sake of your prejudices, please, do not watch this film. This is not a story about one country/people or more, about politics, or any other little things mentioned in this movie. It's about a team, about living a dream of eleven and more of them, in the time when the sport was only a game. Before I watched it I was sad and confused, after the movie I was inspired and ready for tomorrow, what ever that means...
