06/23/2013 U almost feel embarrassed and surprised that you actually like this movie but it definitely has its charm. It's a little over the top and a lot of silliness but it all somehow adds to the movies charm. Real cute feel good movie. See more 08/05/2012 Gay vs Straight football team, who will win? Surprisingly I found this show to be hilarious despite how cheap the movie feels. Almost every character was crazy funny and the thick British accent of all the characters just made them pure comedy to listen to. See more 04/21/2012 The best gay/straight movie with such complicated plot that it's amazing to watch. I was laughing out loud several times. A bit, convoluted, that's where it shines fitting together a band of players on and off the field. The language is very much British Slang but as long as you give in and laugh at how exaggerated and crazy the game it you'll have a blast. It's like a modern Interpersonal Relationship movie about a group of gay guys and a group of straight guys and the things they have in common and the things they don't have in common. See more 04/05/2012 Saw this at Scottsdale International Film Festival 2010. A mediocre drama with an equal blend of humor, conflict, and ultimately, tragedy.
