Huntin P @PaxVobiscum80 2 days ago Fever Pitch is a little lacking in story. It seems to be in want of more scenes, more building of the relationship between the two teachers. Directorially it is not a great success, but it does have a certain charm. A real attraction is seeing Colin Firth play against type. And it's a picture of 1990s era London, even if the movie is set in 1989. Low budget, but not lacking in appeal. See more alan G @agenser Mar 17, 2026 Faithful to the book. Watch this version not the RedSux one. See more Fran S @RT31968113 Dec 20, 2024 A movie with much wasted potential. It’s not at all clear why the female character stays interested in the male lead. He demonstrates no care or curiosity about her while she finds herself staying interested in him and his soccer obsession even as she realizes that he isn’t suitable husband material. I adore Colin Firth, and the British love affair with football is so compelling, but this movie missed the mark.

See more meredith w @Dufflecoats Jan 29, 2023 Not as slick as its later US remake, but a very British film that maintains the Nick Horby sensibility of its source material of how a sports fan's romantic relationship clashes with his obsession with his favourite football team. Colin Firth is always appealing, even when his character is behaving in unlikeable ways. And you don't have to be a football fan to enjoy its story, which can translate to any obsession, not just one that is sports related. See more andrea c @Charst Aug 20, 2021 Commedia tratta dal romanzo di Nick Hornby che funziona bene nel raccontare la viscerale passione per il calcio, mentre funziona molto meno bene nella parte romantica dove tutto ha poco senso e non ci sono abbastanza riferimenti allo sviluppo della coppia. I 15 minuti finali sono però uno splendido riassunto dei sentimenti che porta con sè un qualsiasi sportivo durante gli eventi più importanti della squadra per cui fa il tifo.
