Very different from what I expected

Rating: 10/10 (5 December 2005)

To be honest, I watched this movie because of my boyfriend, who plays football, anyway I was, somehow interested. Is one of the best movies I've seen, and one of my favorites, they really knew how to express all the pressure people put one players. It makes you sympathize with those guys, their families, their very personal story, which, most of the times we don't really seem. What this movie show us is the dream, the hope of a very small town and the players, who are making history and living, maybe, the best part of their lives, and this feeling about making the most of it, because you know it's your last chance to make it worth, it's their part to contribute with the town's history and they don't want to fail, so this makes them grow up faster, they're feeling how their futures can be sharped with the way they play. Also is very touching the fact that it is based on a true story.
