Featured review
The premise of the movie is rather unique and I feel it's even more meaningful nowadays - it is about a sporting scout trying to recruit the next promising young star to join his team. Like a vulture, from the very beginning, he is looking for weaknesses in the coaching staff of the young star and he quickly starts enjoying moderate success as he gets close to the coach of the star, the star's family, and his girlfriend, who, at he describes as a chameleon as he's unsure how to bend her in his favor.
After a while, a lot of moral and ethical issues come to light as he starts questioning whether what he is doing is right or if it is just the price of his job to be dealing with such issues. As the scout of rivaling teams is also interested in the young star, the whole situation starts a discourse that describes the ambitions to get the star as a war where instead of bombs money is used.
