Entertained movie upon misfits kiddies playing to the soccer, 28 December 2005
5/10
Author: ma-cortes

The picture concerns about a English professor called Anna Montgomery(Olivia DÁbo) who comes into a Texas village for teaching in a very young school.She must to educate to a kiddies with down self esteem.She organizes a soccer team and is helped by the village sheriff(Steve Guttenberg).Abundant difficulties throw out when the contender team with a nasty coach(Jay O Sanders) is constituted with the best in the league ,besides the principal player disappears for problems of immigration.In the beginning the team shaped by underdog and geeky members lose the match but they recuperate position later.

The film has amusement and fun.It's agreeable movie for kids who they will enjoy enormously.The movie is a soccer version of ¨mighty Ducks¨and ¨Bad new bears ¨(Michael Ritchie) and newly adapted recently by Richard Linklater with Billy Bob Thorton.However the film didn't obtain success as anteriors version and barely attained smash in the box office.The picture has its amused moments here and there specially when the goalkeeper imagines the attackers players as various personages. The motion picture will like to football buffs's boys . Rating : Average but bemused.
