Honestly one of the worst films I have ever seen. I expected a standard, feel-good family film about a ragtag bunch of kids overcoming adversity, but this honestly makes 'Alex and Me' look like Citizen Kane.
It's hard to know where to begin! The script is dire, the acting is wooden, the effects are laughably bad, and sometimes just completely tangential and unnecessary (How about those high-tech flying military "dragonflies"? Why????). Most importantly, the soccer scenes are overly long, slow and just horribly inaccurate. I tried watching this with my daughter, who was recovering from surgery. It's lucky she didn't bust a stitch from laughing and groaning so hard.
Almost bad enough to be funny, but life is too short. In 90 minutes, you could watch an actual soccer game with more drama and better acting.
