Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 8/10 --
Red Army is most stirring when it examines the painful inner-struggle of these men who left behind a country and government that took a heavy toll on their lives, but who could also never abandon their innate sense of nationalistic pride.

Rating: 4/5 --
Who knew that a documentary on the Soviet Union's Red Army ice hockey team would be so gripping and provide a perfect microcosm of the stages of the Cold War, Perestroika and Putin's reign?

Rating: 4/5 --
Polsky keeps things lively, both visually and with his editing. But the sometimes-lighthearted approach never undermines the serious business at hand.

3.5 stars out of 4 -- [An] electrifying look at a once-unbeatable Soviet hockey team and the link between sports and politics....RED ARMY deserves a big boo-yah from audiences for being illuminating and hugely entertaining.
Rolling Stone
Rating: 3/4 --
It's a mark of Polsky's ambition and canniness that he braids hockey not just with geopolitics but also with personal history and human drama.

Takes a strong subject and renders it toothless and forgettable.

Product Description:

He also reveals how one of the country's most celebrated athletes, Slava Fatisov, worked for change within his country that led to losing the admiration of his countrymen.
