Penalty Kick

About This Movie

So, 'Penalty Kick' is this quirky little comedy from '63 directed by Venyamin Dorman. It has this wonderfully light-hearted vibe, mixing sports with a cheeky sense of trickery. The pacing feels just right—never drags, always keeps you entertained with its offbeat humor. The plot centers around this swindler who takes on coaching an amateur team, but in a twist, he secretly recruits pros to bolster his chances of victory. It’s a clever commentary on ambition and the lengths people will go to win. The performances are charming, with a blend of innocence and shrewdness that makes it a fun watch. Plus, there's a distinct atmosphere that captures the era nicely.
