if 4 seconds can be an eternity, Imagine what we felt like

Rating: 5/10 (27 December 1999)

There's a line in the new Oliver Stone movie that sums it pretty well: "Sometimes 4 seconds is an eternity". After sitting through this overlong, loud, long on style and short on substance football movie, I know about eternities.
Oliver Stone's intentions may have been honorable, but he dropped the ball on that one.
Stone throws everything at you, hoping some of it will stick... Full of clichÃ©s, this movies taught me nothing about football that I didn't already know....
