Leaving aside one's political views and opinions, this movie was very well directed, with nice flow and good performances form the leading actors, especially the ones who portrayed Mr. Varoufakis (Loulis) and Mr. Shäüble (Tukur). The script was also well organised and I very much enjoyed the dancing act that represented Greece's Primeminister dilemma on risking to leave the EU zone to avoid accepting a unrealistic and utterly wrong MoU agreement that would further damage the country's economy.

Few apart from Costa-Gavras would dare to make an entire movie of political "meetings" much less pull it off, keeping it interesting despite considerable repetitiveness. And it's easy to root for Greece the underdog. Still, the one-sidedness of Varoufakis's narrative feels limited, and some of the writing does seem oversimplified or glossy.
