mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

yusifg If you can look past the pre-World Cup campaign and Urgand/Khabensky duo that is clearly miscast and is fed by Russian movie industry as the Russian international stars, the movie is actually very nice. Kids most certainly stole the show. Their athletic ability, as well as acting, was absolutely superb. The "star" cast was sub-par, Jovovich overplays her part, Urgand is out of place. He is an extremely talented show host and comic improviser, but he is not an actor. Well, maybe not yet. Khabensky seems to be playing the same guy in every movie (aside from Admiral). His character always seems to be drunk. All in all, worth watching with the family. A solid 6 stars.

resident234 The movie starts out in Moscow - a man is hit by a car in which a young couple is going to a registry office to get married. But it turns out that the victim and the girl fall in love with each other and the girl dumps her fiancé. The man starts dating the girl and in a week he makes an offer to her to marry him which she happily takes. However, the man is from another city so he has to work off at his job for 2 weeks and then get back to Moscow to marry her. At his last day in the town, he is barely in time on his train to Moscow when he is taken as a soccer coach by mistake and compelled to stay in his home town until he doesn't do his job as the coach. He has to assemble a soccer team and take part in city soccer tournament to be able to get out of town. And then an adventure begins! I'm not a big fan of Russian movies but this particular movie was a fun and I didn't expect I would be absorbed by the storyline so much. The idea is not original, but it is well-staged and played.
