You don't have to give a hoot about basketball to enjoy this movie. This is a movie about identifying with, admiring and responding to achievement in any form.

It is a dream fulfilled.

Dave Hoekstra
Chicago Sun-Times
In an era when so much of the focus in sports is on the glam and the glitz, it's nice to be reminded that it can still be about heart and soul, too.

The Other Dream Team wasn't the 1992 Lithuanian Basketball movie that I necessarily wanted, but it could absolutely be the 1992 Lithuanian Basketball movie that you want, assuming you want such a thing.

If you root for documentaries with heart, "The Other Dream Team" is a slam dunk.

Joe Williams
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Adding detailed historical context, the quirky feel-good story becomes a tragedy and a lesson. And that makes the victories resonate even more.

San Francisco Chronicle
Contains a wealth of high quality interviews.

...a deeply interesting, if conventionally structured and unflashy, documentary ... about the reassertion of national identity after generations of foreign oppression and the role of sport in nation building.

The Other Dream Team is both an exceptional and exceptionally inspiring film.

The Other Dream Team becomes less a simple paean to the triumph of the human spirit and more an admission of life's complexity and messiness.

Matt Prigge
Philadelphia Weekly
Shows sports can have other goals besides winning.

"The Other Dream Team" is a saga of hope, courage and overcoming adversity and how a sport and its players helped a nation rekindle its voice and place on the world stage.
