Échec et Mat

Excellent movie, throughly enjoyed it, acting very good. Good job of directing by John Leguizamo.

I like the movie alot, lots of young talent, John Leguizamo as always is stellar.

Absolutely fantastic, superbly adapted from real life events. Some suspense thrown in with excellent timing. Best film I've watched in a while, I highly recommend. Great casting and what an Amazing directorial debut from John Leguizmo who also stars in the film 👌 Yes I recommend it. James Welch Henderson Arkansas 4/7/2021.

Based on true history that proves chess is very helpful tools in the schools.

John Leguizamo is a straight beauty, a directing pioneer, artist, aka a Legend

The film starts in a promising manner, as the teacher shows much passion and dedication. The latter half of the film is not so interesting for someone who doesn't know chess. I think some narration on what is going on would be useful. Overall, it's still an engaging film.

Ok I am a Big John Fan so when I started to watch this FILM. I expect a LOT MORE. But it got really boring fast. I know it's a TRUE STORY. I HAVE WATCHED TONS OF THEM. But this FILM seems to be more of a Document. He talkes so such about the CHESS ITS LIKE HE EXPLAINS IT WAY TO MUCH. Kind of like your in Class with the KIDS. I don't know the FILM just got way to Boring to me. Just got Boring way to Fast. We all know it's a TRUE STORY. IT JUST SEEMS LIKE THERE WAS WAY TO MUCH DETAILS. I EXPECT WAY MORE FROM HIM. We didn't really know the needed to sell the Chocolate Bars for $4.25 cents Lol.
