Not as good as critics think

The film is well-paced and time flies quickly, but it remained simple and a bit superficial for me.

I loved that film was historically with its Soviet architecture, clothes and people values. Also the dramatic events related to the re-independence of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are well conveyed, which is very relevant against the background of the current war in Ukraine.

However, everything was not as nice as I expected: I didn't like the fact that the tension of the basketball competition situation did not really arise, at least for the basketball player it was quite superficial and I didn't get the feeling that I was watching a real competition.

It was also surprising why Tiit Sokk as one of the game leaders was practically not covered. There is not even one dialogue in the film.

The acting was very good, especially Mait Malmsten, Priit Voigemast and Reimo Sagor.

Overall, the movie is worth watching, but definitely not as good as the critics have reported so far, and because of all the above, I can't give it more than 6-7 stars.
