Opisy(1)
Prawnik Mike Flaherty (Paul Giamatti) zgłasza się na ochotnika jako trener licealnej drużyny zapaśniczej. Poznaje tam młodego chłopaka, który ma zadatki na gwiazdę sportu, ale boryka się z problemami rodzinnymi. Pomaga chłopakowi z niezbyt czystych pobudek (liczy na zarobek), ale kiedy zaczyna mu na nim naprawdę zależeć, zjawia się matka nastolatka, która właśnie wyszła z odwyku. Film odpowiada na pytanie towarzyszące wielu z nas: czy kiedy robi się naprawdę ciężko, lepiej realizować cele za wszelką cenę, czy robić to, co podpowiada nam serce? (Imperial Cinepix)

Wii-n Wii-n. A drama about the path to a great victory. On a small scale. The indie background of festival darling Thomas McCarthy is brought to light by the film’s very slow pace and its reluctance to get going. Otherwise, anyone who has seen at least two Hollywood sports dramas will find the plot to be as transparent as the glass in a trophy case. Unlike The Station Agent and The Visitor, Win Win did not appeal to me at all, despite being more complex in its interest in the broader context of its characters’ bad mood (crisis, stress, pressure and such). I didn’t care why Giamatti is in trouble, how he got into it or how he plans to get out of it, i.e. how he fills his sterilised life. He’s not a suitable actor to play an “average Joe” character, and his mediocrity here manifests as absolute uninterestingness, which is a word that could be applied to the film as a whole. 50%

Paul Giamatti is a great actor and with Win Win he proved it again. Thanks to him, but also thanks to the other actors, this film is presented in a way that keeps you entertained. Even though it's about growing up, about how we can fuck up our lives, it's presented in such a way that you won't feel like you've seen this a hundred times before.
