Shooting Stars

About This Movie

Shooting Stars is an intriguing drama that dives into the darker side of the beautiful game. The film revolves around the kidnapping of a footballer, and it captures the tension and desperation of the situation really well. There's a rawness to the storytelling that feels genuine, with an atmosphere that is quite palpable. The pacing might seem slow for some, but it allows you to really sit with the characters and absorb their struggles. Performances are a mixed bag; some moments really shine while others feel a bit forced. It's not your typical sports flick, more a character study wrapped in a thriller vibe. And while the practical effects aren’t groundbreaking, they contribute to the gritty realism.
