Pawn Sacrifice
USA 2014, 115 minutes
Dir. Edward Zwick
Genres: Drama
Topics: Mental Health, Period 1970s, Sport.
Feat. Tobey Maguire, Liev Schreiber, Lily Rabe, Aunjanue Ellis, Peter Sarsgaard, Michael Stuhlbarg, Robin Weigert, Evelyne Brochu
Synopsis: Tobey Maguire and Liev Schrieber face off in this compelling recreation of chess' famous cold war showdown, between the taciturn Russian Boris Spassky and the mentally fragile Bobby Fischer of the United States.
“an enthralling piece of mainstream entertainment that captures the essence of Fischer's mad genius, perfectly re-creates the tenor of the times AND works as a legit sports movie about the great game of chess.”

1 star (Turkey) Maguire is hysterical and dreadful. Schreiber just looks uncomfortable and silly. There are some good chess documentaries around rather than bother with this. ~Tubbs
