Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

sistermr I think this movie is excellent in so many ways I had to give it a 10, which is something I rarely do when evaluating anything. I really liked the creative and realistic manner in which the subject matter comes to light and is subsequently dealt with. Both main characters, Julia and Elliot, display the required range of emotion for a couple in this situation with a conviction that draws one in. I could not help but feel empathy for both of them. I was sorry to see it end. I hope that the success this film has had so far on the festival circuit will be followed by equal success in a release that will reach a wider audience. This is a movie that must be seen. Think The Longest Yard meets Disclosure. Why? There is plenty of football coverage for all you football fans. Disclosure was groundbreaking for its time, just as Road to Victory is for our time.

mortso Being somewhat of a "Guy film" buff, this movie brought me to a new understanding of Atheletes, Men and just life in general for the young and in love, and did it without one car chase, violence, or raw, unmoving act of tasteless sex. This is a thinker, you will leave pondering the plot for days, and not altogether sure you wanted to in the first place! It is an eye opener and an art piece in one package. This is also a film for Couples embarking on life together, to see first hand what commitment really means. My only criticism at all is based on the lack of a few drops of water and my limited attention span, (I'm fully ADD) and I'd recommend this to anyone with a heart and a brain. Kudos to the Fine Artists whose performances were truly convincing and moving. Mygod... I even shed a tear or two! Julia is Stunning, warm and very "screen savvy"! Gimme MORE! Mike, this being his first acting role, has set a new archetype for macho and will very likely be seen more and more on the big screen. Can he Kung Fu? We all wanna find that one out! Regardless as Director he has assured himself a place in the "city of lights" should he choose to pursue that occupation! He has promised us another film soon, and it sounds stunning. Worth the see, worth the resulting ponder and for sure a very moving piece of film. AAA+++

Movie-Afficianado So many times I force my husband to sit through a "chick" flick, and he just rolls his eyes. Sometimes, if it's funny, he'll laugh a little.But I think this is the only relationship film that he and I have ever watched together that we both enjoyed. And that is why I'm giving the film 10 out of 10, because it has appeal to both men and woman equally.Nearly every dynamic in the film is affected by gender, and the movie manages to do this without being sexist. I empathized with Anna's character because I could understand that she wasn't mean, but just insecure.My husband on the other hand, felt a deep bond with Elliot's character, because he could empathize with his vulnerability.This is a fantastic date movie. You will walk out of this movie with your date, and talk about it afterwards, and the subject matter is such, that those talks will definitely tell you something about the person your dating.

Fest_Buff Seriously, I've been going to festivals for years, and more times than not what I have been subjected to lately is complete crap.Road To Victory however, has true substance. Really, it's everything that we used to think of when it came to independent film: smart script, good acting, and aptly shot. And the subject matter of drug use in sport, along with the social commentary on medicine could not be more timely. We used to rely on independent film to tackle these subjects, so it is great to see that some filmmakers are still trying to do some good with their work.The trend of film festivals lately seems to be a name actor, or a gimmick, attached to a laurel leaf. Many festivals are starting to become the exact thing they started out not to be.I predict this film will be a hit on DVD once it is done playing at the festival circuits.
