See You in Montevideo

Well, I've seen this movie because it's about an event that happened in my country, (Uruguay) and am very fond of football. 1) It looks like if the championship took place anyplace, except in my country. To me it seems to be Mexico,not Uruguay at all. 2) I know the Estadio Centenario very well, it's a world football monument, and the capacity of the stadium wasn't as big as it seems in the picture,what is shown on the movie is the actual capacity, not the one when in was founded, in 1930. 3)A tremendous mistake : Remember it was 1930, and it's shown a plasma or LSD flat TV showing a game between Peñarol(Uruguay) and Santos(Brazil) that took place in 2011 and the famous Neymar was on it. 4) A don't complain about the plot , the actors, the director or the technical details of the film, but the errors are so big , that spoiled the whole thing .It would have been much better if the people involved in the movie would have taken more time to inform themselves of the country, the habits, (the Brazilian fans are shown as if they were Indians from the Amazon), the food we consume, etc. Ours is a beautiful country, why didn't they did it in situ ? Really disappointing

Having recently watched the Wolf of Wall Street, the film was a wonderful reminder that not all has to be crass and vulgar. The film is full of charm and humour which I can only hope will not be lost in translation.

Hollywood should view this film and realise that there is much more to cinema than obscenity mixed in with blood and guts. To have made such a film on a Balkan budget speaks volumes for the producers, director, actors and editing staff.

Could there possibly be a third part - the return home.

Bravo.

I am a football fan and widely travelled but I did not know the story of the Yugoslavia football team in the 1930 World Cup in Uruguay and I thoroughly enjoyed this film from start to finish. I am a little uncomfortable with the reference to the Yugoslav team being entirely Serbian but I acknowledge why it was referenced in the way it was and i empathise with the analogy if a British team competing was comprised entirely of Englishmen.

Superbly filmed, excellent dialogues, loaded with comic moments, touching moments of romance and suspense but I wonder if the romance was true between the Yugoslav football player and Dolores? In years there has not been a football related movie to get even remotely close to 'The Damned United' and the Brian Clough story but this, given it is a foreign language film, exceeds that and you are missing a jewel of a movie at your absolute peril.

It is a weird kind of agony that Yugoslavia beat the favoured nation Brazil in their first match which nation also supplied the reference for that eventful semi=final with Uruguay and the irony extends to the 1950 final when Uruguay beat Brazil on their 'patch'.

The film itself was in my view faultless but I would have liked some reference at the end as to what happened in the lives of those Yugoslav football players. Did they return to Serbia? By the way, reference to Coca Cola was a little odd because I thought the soft drink was not marketed aligned with Santa Klaus for red and white until the Christmas of 1936.

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.

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.
