Football as an art form is the only way I can sum up this film. You are ported into the world of Zidane and Real Madrid. You experience the noise, the lights, the highs and the frustration all in 90 minutes. Unlike anything I have ever seen. I was gripped.
This film allows you to feel as though you are on the field with Zidane and Real Madrid. I really enjoyed it. If you are looking for interviews, lots of dialogue, etc. this film is not for you. If you want to feel as though you are in the middle of an actual game and you love Zizou, get it. That's why I did.
couse zidane its one of my favorite players knowing that he is retired eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
As a fan of both football and artistic films I really enjoyed this 90 minute treat. Closely follows Zidane throughout his involvement in a single game. Curiously mesmerizing, 17 cameras were used to shoot the fully focused, somewhat edgy and, at times, foot dragging "genius". Excellent musical score from Mogwai that perfectly matches the moodiness of the midfielder. The sound editing is simply brilliant. ZZ's thoughts on playing the sport pop up, sporadically, along the bottom of the screen to complement what we are watching and act as a silent, insightful commentary. A complex, thoughtful character is captured beautifully by the two artist directors. One of the highlights, for me, is Zidane having a laugh with Roberto Carlos, he is soon back to his serious, troubled looking self and the aggressive choking of an opponent and the resulting red card bring the project to a [fortunate] explosive climax, just like his career on the pitch. Simple with hidden depth, a REAL gem.Read full review
A very good concept for a DVD. Anyone remember tthe feature on Sky Sports where they followed a plyer for 15 mins ? Well, this is for the whole game, on Zidane. Great soundtrack to the DVD.
