Wonder where I lost it.

    On similar lines, I was a big fan of Ivanisevic.
    The feeling towards Sampras and Federer was 'respect', while that towards Goran and Rafa was 'fanship'.
    Goran was more of an underdog against Sampras, whereas Rafa was always a good opponent for Federer.

Bjorn was out for his fifth consecutive English title. McEnroe was the new kid on the block. Bjorn was not always the IceBorg. There was a time in his younger days when anger got the best out of him. John was not always the Ferocious McEnroe. There was a time in his younger days when he imitated his idol Borg by wearing a headgear and hanging picture of him on his bedroom wall. It needed a 4-time Wimbledon quarter-final losing coach for Borg to realise that the real game should not be played on the field but it should be inside one's own head. That's what made Bjorn the 100% perfection, 0% emotion focus oriented Borg. The anger, the anguish, the hate, the love, the fear... play all that out on the next ball. It needed McEnroe senior to realise his son found his focus in his brash temperament. He distractions and his volatile often un-gentlemanly emotions towards them made him the most hated player on the circuit. The final is shot luxuriously yet thrilling with a fitting cimax where both these men vanquish their devils. What I found most exciting is, outside the two might have nothing in common, probably the most contrasting people ever to pick up a racket but inside, they are the same. I am a fan of 'Amadeus', I loved 'Rush'. I have not seen many movies on tennis less even the rivalry between two top great tennis players. The movie might have its flaws, I don't know, I loved it and I recommend it to fans of movies and movie fans who are fans of tennis.

    Thanks,adhyayite kelkune will try to watch.....Haven't watched them play live videosum adhikam kanditilla so valya idea illa

    I thought 2008 wimbly final bw federer and nadal was the greatest tennis match,Will try to catch up the highlights of 1980 final anyway

    Federer is one and the only player fascinated me and he's still fascinating its not just about tennis

    In cricket i adore the game of virender sehwag and de villiers due to their unique style the same in football to cristiano,zidane,figo and modric for some obvious reasons but watching federer is a different feeling whole together.He is definitely the best sports man of this generation.The maestro has got the attitude and personality of a true champion apart from the artistry work

    Have lot of respect to rafa he is adrenaline pumping staff,a terrific competitor with supernatural athleticism but due to the never ending rivalry i never enjoyed his success just like messi

    Watched 'Molly's game'.
    I liked it. Watched it for the director. I don't know how much its related to the real story. I haven't checked it yet
    The 'take-home' thing for me was the integrity of the character. Pakshe kurachu koodi thrilling aakkaamaayirunnu because there were court scenes and Russian mafia was involved. Good watch.. not a single boring moment. Recommended.

    The Commuter

    The Commuter has nothing much to rave about,still a great Liam Neeson and few generic thrills works in favor of this cinema.The Commuter has its share of similarities with the director's previous work 'Non-Stop' which also starred Liam Neeson in the lead,nevertheless this is a decent action thriller.

    Mom and Dad

    A premise that's extremely bizarre,totally insane performances by Nicolas Cage and Salma Blair,and a slick and outlandish narrative - Mom and Dad is completely an unusual cinema,and yes it does entertain.
