Variety

There's a sweet message at the heart of "The Bromley Boys" about finding the heroism in mediocrity, though it's one not best served by the film being entirely mediocre itself.

Times (UK)

It's very light and all a bit TV, with a seemingly interminable second act. Yet the characters are so affectionately drawn and so sweetly played that you forgive the conspicuous lapses.

Rated: 3/5

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

The Bromley Boys offers a feel-good movie that acts as a love letter to Bromley FC and football in general.

Even with these flaws, The Bromley Boys is entirely pleasant to watch; it just never rises above mere pleasantness to be truly compelling.

Now I'm a HUGE football fan in the 🇬🇧. I even started life as a fan of a non-league team. So I can completely relate to this film! But it's just not very good. It's like watching a boring 0-0 draw on a cold winter night...

Between 2 and 2.5 stars. Most of the time, you don't see the point of the obsession of a guy which does not offer much maturity as the movie evolves.

B movie with a heart. Worth the time investment for an interesting view into the lives of ordinary people centered on a hometown soccer team.
