The Polo Kid Audience Reviews

Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Barnaby Parker I really enjoyed the film - there are some great polo scenes and i couldn't help really wanting Santi to do well (even if he is a bit monosyllabic). In short its a simple story told well against a good soundtrack. There is a formula for the sports action hero film and although this follows the format it never leaves reality. Santi is a young boy with a few issues of his own and we see him struggling to get ahead in a fiercely competitive world. Whether or not he really does make it becomes partly irrelevant as he overcomes immense challenges to get as far as he does. Al Pacino isn't there to give a rousing team talk but the film does feature stars such as Nacho Figueras and the great Adolfo Cambiaso. Well worth watching and you don't have to be a polo fan!
