I watched this movie because I love football, but mostly because I love the passion of the fans. You can't really understand that if you never been part of this culture, being member of a side, firm, kop or whatever kind of hardcore fan. I watched this movie with apprehension though, as it's about Liverpool, and that's not exactly the team I would root for, in fact I hate their guts since the team that I support, Standard de Liège, lost unfairly against them in the Champions League. Add to that that Liverpool fans, the scousers, are known as thieving scumbags, so not really fans I have a high opinion of. When I was young I had some sympathy for the club though, Ian Rush, Kenny Dalglish, and others, they had a team that made me dream, plus they had The Kop, a red and white wall of fans behind one of the goals, with their famous anthem You'll Never Walk Alone, a song sang by Gerry And The Pacemakers, that became popular in the stands, not only in the Merseyside but everywhere in stadiums with a decent fanbase. Everytime I hear that song I can't help it to think about mates that died during the years, people that were all passionate about the team we followed, it's a bit of a tear jerker. That all said this movie isn't only about football, it's about passion, friendship and determination. I liked it, made me remember the good old days, the eighties and early nineties, when I would have done anything to support my team everywhere with my mates. But even if you're not really into football it's a movie worth watching, with decent actors and a good emotional story.
