It looks like the typical sports love story I had seen before and to add insult to injury it was also a musical... I would never have seen this movie if it wasn't for Alexander Petrov whom I fell for in T-34, and it was a nice surprise for me, I thought he would be serious in this movie too, Petrov's Sacha was like Loki in the Avengers, the most interesting and funny character in the story, I also have to give credit to the actor who played the mean Leonov, the mean coach Seva and Irina Sergeievna, the good coach.
