Colin M A local football match between two rival pubs will determine the fate of Benny's Bar. With subplots and a strange cast. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/24/24 Full Review Audience Member An enjoyable movie. Well worth the watch if you enjoy the beautiful game and also like the highlands of Scotland. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Un villorrio escocà (C)s, dos pubs rivales, una apuesta y un partido de fútbol son los ingredientes de esta comedia vagamente dramática que carece de pretensiones. Un reparto con sorpresas, una historia amable, con romance, costumbrismo y un punto de amargura. Se ve con simpatía. Y sale Samantha Fox ! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty enjoyable movie involving two of the greatest things in life: football and friendship. Two bars dispute a football match every year since 1899. The upcoming game will decide who's bar will be closed forever and delivered to the owner of the winning team. Long live Scotland, long live football! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member This is definately one of my favorites! Although I can't find it anywhere on dvd in usa format. it's driving me crazy!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member what a great and positive movie! probably one of the only sport movies i can actually watch and enjoy Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
