My problem with this movie is that the main actors are around 15 or 20 years older than the characters they are supposed to be playing. So they look like midlife people but they are dealing with issues as if they were fresh out of high school. I think they would have been better off casting it w/ college-aged soccer players. I am usually a big fan of movies like this one, but for some reason this movie didn't quite do it for me. It was ok. Extra 1/2 star for Gerard Butler and Gavin Rossdale...I do like them.

Nice flick, although I expected better soccer aptitudes from these 'athletic' actors. Stewart's imitation of an American accent was flawed in some moments, but still I admire his acting experience overall. Gavin Rossdale doesn't seem believable; perhaps he's better suited to writing simple grunge songs (a decade ago).

just great film....based on true facts...and with a strong patriotic feeling! with an amazing cast they really recreated those times and the soccer itself! awesome!;)
