flavio-orlando *****SPOILERS********While this can be an enjoyable comedy the historical inaccuracies (on facts that can be checked on Wikipedia by a 10 years old) are so big that they invalidate the whole movie.Uruguay depiction reminds the image of Mexico given by a bad American action movie from early 80's, a tropical dusty place where people wear white hats and white suits, eat coconuts and have monkey pets. There are reports from 1930 WC that say that there were SNOW falls during the Cup so hardly a tropical country. Moreover Uruguay was a much developed and "European" country than Yugoslav itself back then, receiving scores of European immigrants every year (including people from Yugoslavia).The Brazilian team is shown as having all black players which at the time were banned from the national team. If you do "Brazilian national team 1930" in Google you will see a lot of pictures with not one single African-Brazilian player on them. Their jersey was not yellow and no, they did not have a witch-doctor that looks like taken from the "Tintin in Congo" comic book to curse their rivals. Finally, while is entirely possible that Uruguay was, in fact, favored in the semi- final match against Yugoslavia there were in no case mobs with torches in the stands threatening with lynching the Yugoslav players, case they won. By the way, they lost that match by a 5 goals difference and that is not explained by some doubtful play in which the rival might have been favored. Sorry but it is impossible to enjoy a movie which feeds so freely on stupid stereotypes and gross historical inaccuracies. They all make it look cheap and lightly produced.

petarmatic Plot is excellent, and cinematography is beautiful as well as acting, it all brought me back to childhood when I watched beautiful ex Yugoslav films. What I did not like is two last lines of the film, which went like in Uruguay in the 1930 World Cup this was the biggest achievement by Serbian football. Because a year earlier Croatian members of the Yugoslav Parlament, Stjepan Radic and Djuro Basaricek were killed by a Serbian ultra nationalist Punisa Racic by the order of the Yugoslav King Alexander I, and Yugoslav football federation was moved from Zagreb to Belgrade by force. Because of those events non Serb footballers chose not to join Yugoslav squad and that squad was filled by the Serbs only. As such they went to Uruguay and achieved what they did. In the film in a short dialogue Pako character emhpasizes that. Since that team represented Kingdom of Yugoslavia the last line should be read It was one of the greatest achievement of the Yugoslav sport of all times. Otherwise I really enjoyed this film and I think it was made with warmth and love.

margosanci At first I refuse to watch this movie. I wanted to save the impression about the story told in the "first Montevideo". No one could argue with that. But, then I saw the words "see you" in the movie's title, and I thought: that's reality calling all the visions, all the dreams to put up the fight with them. How long will the players stand for their team, how long will they truly play? When will they realize how big is that dream, how deceptive the illusions could be? Everybody knows that Yugoslav team didn't won the first World Cup, so they were defeated and somebody will say: they lost. So, their biggest dream didn't come true? How do we know that it was the biggest one? Maybe they've already accomplished that when they were chosen and came to Montevideo only to play football just for fun, for the love of the game... Is there some victory hidden behind the competitions, behind the money that tends to control all, behind the vanity... You'll never know if you refuse to watch, like I did, until now...

bokimajk 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...
