Your thoughts on what will be cricket's most controversial movie?

Question

http://content-nz.cricinfo.com/southafrica/content/current/story/363848.html

What do you think about the idea of making a movie on Cronje's life? When it's released, do you think you will watch it or try and steer clear of it?

Answer 1

WOW...That is my first reaction...

This is going to stir up a lot of different emotions from cricket fans all over the world..

Personally i would really like to see this,i think it will be a very interesting view of his life-from his brothers perspective..

I always admired Hanse Cronje and it was a massive shock when he was found guilty of match fixing..

Putting all that aside he has an excellent cricket player who sadly gave in to temptation..I will watch this if given the chance to...

Answer 2

I will certainly watch it if I have the chance. Hansie was always a favourite of mine & the tragic end to a brilliant career & his life were one of the worst moments of my life.

Answer 3

I will definitely watch the movie.  I think it is important for cricket that the story gets re-told. When we think that HC was a talented cricketer who lead his country and ostensibly was a role model to all aspiring cricketers, and yet some how was won over to the dark side of corruption.  

With the game now having a lot more money in it and the new format or T20, that in my opinion, that lends itself to gambling and therefore corruption. This story needs to be re-told, to serve as a reminder of what may happen.

Answer 4

Great idea, atleast it is a very nice opportunity for his brother to portray the good traits of his character and the circumstances and the human avariciousness , which can make prey even superstars like him, it will be a good explanation to those , who just perceive him as only a bad man and nothing else , it will also a very good teaching for the new generation and may be a lesson to people that destiny is self defined and can bring you down from cloud 9 to the hard floor within no time !

i will certainly watch the movie without fail and i hope his brother will be able to portray and explain us all , why he got indulged to those bookies and match fixing things!

god bless!  

Answer 5

I'll watch it.

I've got nothing better to do.

Except enter a chocolate eating competition. Then I could get FAT! YEAH!

Answer 6

Answer 7

I'm going to watch it for sure.

It looks like it explains the life of cricketers. Cronje's life shows the hardship of being a captain and being a cricketer really. I think it'll be interesting to watch.

Answer 8

I think Cronje was a great cricketer- even though controversey make have doged the end of his career. I enjoyed watchubg him play and think his life would make an outstanding movie. It is normally movies of great lives that end in death that sell well.
