The verdict is a bit harsh :-) because I think, it's good for chess in general
and here for computerchess too, when a top chess player appears in such a
documentation. This doesn't happen often. It can bring new fans to chess and
computerchess, disregarding different opinions about facts of the match and K's
performance etc. It's obvious that everybody will (and should) express his very
individual view of all that in such a film.

For the insiders, it may be a chance to see some scene VIPs known from the
internet. I hope it will appear on local tv after some time (I don't assume that
in will be played in cinemas outside GB though... chess audience is too small).
