      When institutions and sports are intertwined

      I haven't heard of this movie before, but it's definitely a wonderful movie. It's not a bad idea to watch it as a feature film. Some of the sports-themed feature films I've seen are not as good as this!
      The players of Fedisov's generation are more fortunate than the older generation, and at least have the opportunity to realize themselves through struggle. As an individual released from the old system, this film uses a first-person perspective to describe all kinds of ups and downs, and...

      A true legend born under a special historical opportunity

      I can't make up such a wonderful story on purpose. Not to mention that it exudes the kind of mind-blowing power that is characteristic of true stories. Could be a great story. I can't make up such a wonderful story on purpose. Not to mention that it exudes the kind of mind-blowing power that is characteristic of true stories. Probably the best documentary I've seen so far. There are too many things in it, it's too heavy

      Red Army ice hockey team

      "Red Army" is a film about the Red Army ice hockey team during the heyday of sports in the former Soviet Union. It is told to the audience from the perspective of captain Slava Fedisov. The story depicts his dramatic transformation from a national hero to a national political enemy. From the Soviet Union to Russia, the film explores how sport is a true reflection of social and cultural movement, and the rise and fall of the Red Army ice hockey team mirrors the changing regimes of the former...

      The Ignition of Competitive Sports and the Ride of the Trend

      There has always been a plot for sports themes, and it's really good. I'm struggling to give it four or five stars. Although there are many precious historical footage, they are not completely viewed as documentaries. The director also has a tendency when arranging and deleting materials, unless it is an animal world documentary. It is especially obvious that when I first came to the American Empire, I was lonely and beaten up to cut the game highlights. In the 1997 season, the soundtrack...

      different sports spirit

            There seem to be many kinds of sportsmanship, focusing on participation, winner is king, mass interaction, mass entertainment? The Soviet Union and the Celestial Dynasty used the movement as a political means and used state power to forcibly strengthen it. It seems that the movement has lost its original fun. Representatives of capitalism such as the United States have professionalized part of the movement and turned it into a means of entertaining the public. Of course, anything...

      It exploded, and the blood is better than many sports biopics. The Soviet ice hockey team was once the most dominant team on the planet, and its rise and fall was inseparable from the changes in the political system. Although the team members have experienced all kinds of restraints and tortures under the national system, the patriotism and friendship that shared weal and woe in their hearts are sincere enough. The film editing and soundtrack are exquisite, and the ending returns to the...

      Magic country. The drama is so powerful that it makes genre films blush. More than just a hockey team retrospective, it surprisingly cuts through the dark side of a...

      1. The distinction between socialism and capitalism is a false proposition. 2. Collectivism and individualism have their own advantages and disadvantages. 3. It is a lie to say that sports have nothing to do with politics. 4. If you can't figure out the difference between the former Soviet Union and China, you will be in...

      The rhythm of the video is very high, like the ice hockey style of the Red Army, and the soundtrack is very good in the documentary. Tarasov was as good a gardener as Robarovsky and could be a father for life, but unfortunately he was ruined by the bureaucracy. The last paragraph of going back to Russia to engage in politics has been taken carelessly, and some words are unclear. The water of the Sochi Winter Olympics is still very...

      The most movie I saw in 2015, and now the whole person is not calm. Slava Fetisov, I have to memorize this name so that I can recommend it to others over and over...

    Movie quotes

    • (voice): [confused] Wait a second. Go Back. I don't get why Yazov let you leave the country, if he was mad at you.

      Viacheslav Fetisov: I'm not a historian. My feeling was the country tried to change something, because it's Perestroika time, but he doesn't want changes. Everybody was afraid. It's understandable. It's like in a dark room, trying to find a dark cat. It's not funny.

      [still confused]

      (voice): Okay.

    • (voice): When you die, this is gonna be your legacy.

      Viacheslav Fetisov: [Taking phone out] I know and I appreciate it. You're a good guy. I'm lucky to have you.

      (voice): I think we're both lucky to have each other.

      Viacheslav Fetisov: [Not paying attention, calling on phone] That's even better. California boy and good guy.

      (voice): Chicago.
