Reviews

Chameleon Sheen gives another terrific performance in a compelling, funny drama you don’t have to like soccer to enjoy… Thoroughly entertaining, cartoonish romp, part nostalgia fest, part buddy movie. You do not have to like football to enjoy it… Hugely enjoyable, sharply written and superbly directed British drama, with a terrific central performance by Michael Sheen
