Brian Costello Common Sense Media This scrappy underdog tale has an interesting setting but a tired premise. Jan 17, 2024 Full Review Amanda Guarragi Ready Steady Cut This film highlights the strength of community and understanding the value of building that foundation so you’re able to move on to bigger and greater things. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Bill B A thoughtful (and yes romanticized) portrayal of the desire to excel at soccer as a ticket out of the townships of So. Africa. Raises issues of father/son abandonment and rebuilding; friendship and bonding in the team; and a gritty view of life in the townships. Well worth watching. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/24 Full Review Read all reviews
