Bauernopfer – Spiel der Könige (2014)

Bauernopfer – Spiel der Könige: Directed by Edward Zwick. With Tobey Maguire, Liev Schreiber, Michael Stuhlbarg, Peter Sarsgaard. Set during the Cold War, American chess prodigy Bobby Fischer finds himself caught between two superpowers and his own struggles as he challenges the Soviet Empire.

“Tobey Maguire is a very fine actor. Regrettably, he is not cast very frequently and since the failure of u0026quot;Spider-Man 3u0026quot; in 2007, his fans have not seen very much of him. With u0026quot;Pawn Sacrificeu0026quot;, however, he once again showed his talent, depicting American chess genius and grandmaster Bobby Fischer from his childhood years up to the famous World Chess Championship in Reykjavík, Iceland in 1972. Co-starring Liev Schreiber, Peter Sarsgaard and Michael Stuhlbarg, the film has no lack of good acting.”
