I'd take this over a lot of other comedies from the 2000s.

Rating: Null/10 (7 February 2020)

It's rare we get a comedy movie that really is just fun without being weighed down by schmaltz and a subtext.
This goofy adventure in celebration of the world's most under-rated spectator sport isn't exactly sparkling, but it has passion, imagination and makes you want to feel silly as people get serious over something that's actually pretty trivial. Except unlike most sports, it's fun to watch.
Great central performance really helps.
