Beautiful diversified,landscapes, amazing fotographic vues.
The story is told in a simple yet realistic way of 3 divers cultures.
Amazing entertaining and quirky! This movie delivers more than the title implies.
Humoristically so simply and honestly, presented that we couldn't stop laughing!
Recommend anyone which is in search to pass a joyful movie night with no deeper
sense than what the Football (soccer) Mundial is represented, but seen it in a totally different angel! Great Job.

visually exciting with great photography of exotic landscapes and cultures (no doubt dolled up), great soundtrack, story keeps interest throughout. FYI, as previous reviewer mentioned, click "cc" to the right of the time to get closed caption=subtitlles

Fun movie. I wish I knew about the CC before I started watching. I'm new to Hulu and thought it would be automatic I guess. I wasn't sure whether it was a full-on doc., or acted out , but certain parts give that away. Anyway, well worth it, some very funny moments and beautiful cinematography.

This movie makes me miss Niger and the nights I spent watching the Africa Cup finals at my neighbor's house on his tv/satellite hook up. It was very much the same, everyone crowded around a tiny tv.

I thought it was a great film--well worth watching. Anyone interested in travel and the amazing cultures in our world will enjoy this film. As with any documentary, it's always hard to tell how much thing are contrived when people know they are being filmed. Lastly, as someone who is familiar with the cultures of Central Asia, I'm pretty sure that the people in Mongolia are actually ethnic Kazakhs who live in Mongolia--I'm almost sure they're speaking Kazakh. Just wanted to point that out so people know they're getting a taste of traditional Kazakh culture.

Great exposure to several cultures with the same goal, which was to watch a championship football (soccer) game. The love of the game was evident in their unrelenting pursuit to watch the game. True sports fans can approach the hardwork put into trying to get to a television to watch a championship game. Not so different from our western culture was the interactions among the people. People are pretty much the same around the world. Remember to click the CC icon.
