Overall an entertaining film. Great direction.

Rating: 10/10 (3 September 2007)

I was very pleased by the film. I can't tolerate SRK usually but he gives a powerful performance on this one and isn't his irritating self. Also the unifying theme behind the film about the world cup is something that appeals to everybody. The only disappointment was that I thought this film to have been inspired by a true story but guess not..Actually the best the Indian womens hockey team ever did in a world cup was finishing 4th.
Anyway a must watch film indeed.
Also great direction from a not so experienced director. The game scenes are pretty well shot. Good job.
