Huston, showing admirable range in his old age, creates enough on-field magic and nostalgia for the beatiful game as an idyll of now-extinct sportsmanship.August 13, 2010
Unsatisfactory both for fans of star-studded prison escape dramas and for football fans hoping to see cunningly devised tactics from Pele and his squad of internationals.August 13, 2010
A cracking good story and some of the best football action committed to celluloid have made this a Bank Holiday classic.August 13, 2010
Alternately hokey and inspiring.August 13, 2010
A frankly oldfashioned World War II morality play, hinging on soccer as a civilized metaphor for the game of War.August 13, 2010
The form of the film is conventional, but the manner in which it has been executed is not.
