I personally liked the movies as it has to do with cricketer, Vijay ( Hurman) from small-town Rajasthan is so good that he should, by rights, have been in the Indian team. But, and this is a story we know well, he doesn't even get a look-in on the Ranji.
`Victory' is about Vijay's rise-fall-rise, the heady feeling of success, and the downfall.A greedy agent ( Gulshan) gets his claws into the rising star, who slides down the slippery slope of here-now-gone-the-next-instant-fame, forgetting those who kept him grounded, `deshbhakt' dad ( Anupam), and best bud ( Amrita).
A fleet of international cricketers like Harbhajan Singh and Jayasuriya and the dishy Brett Lee have quite a lot of screen time.
`Victory' has all the right intentions, but its execution is bland.The music is good and its worth a watch.
