much more enjoyable if you know The story

Rating: 7/10 (21 February 2010)

I saw yesterday this movie knowing some of the background of the movie, like who nelson Mandela is and what was the apartheid. also i some about Southafrica in the world cup of rugby in year 1995.
the good: the acting i found it very good, and the rugby parts very real. you can really find inspiration in the movie.
the bad: being a Clint Eastwood movie i expected much more. first of all, its almost mandatory to know some about the story. But even so, the movie lacks of something..., its like you are waiting for some to come, but i never does. sometimes it looks like a documentary, at the end of the movie you cant tell if it is a sport movie or a drama with some sport in it...i expected a little bit more.
Still, its worth seeing, not Eastwood's best but a good movie. don't go watch it with hopes up.
