Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Romilos Fronimides Well, it's not only for football fans (sorry, American mates, it's not "soccer"!). It's not only if you are a proud "RED-MAN" (like myself), a supporter of the MIGHTY LIVERPOOL FC.!!!... ...It's a family movie. You can watch it, no matter what.It's not perfect film, no question about it. But is emotional, is dramatic, is good to watch it.Obviously... if you're a football fan... and even more, if you are a LIVERPOOL FC supporter... you won't stop crying, at the end of the film - I couldn't. I remember every single second of these MAGNIFICENT three days in Istanbul; these days that changed my life for ever... ...I understood that except my true family (parents, sister, etc), I have also A HUGE "RED family", so proud, so magnificent, so magic.I remember all... And I do remember the long way back (from stadium, many-many miles away from the city), by foot (!) - because we've lost the bus - and arrived in Istanbul early hours of next morning... without feeling tired, without any thought of sleep... just a remarkable joy, like we have conquered the universe!!!...You'll taste a bit of it, in this film. You'll taste a bit of OUR PRIDE, OUR "RED" ONE!"YNWA"... as always, my Liverpool!

Joshreynolds-47 The film has this really feel good get you up story about it. It's well written, factually correct in many ways ( Csevinc has you believe in his review it isn't possible in Europe to cross borders without a passport which in actual fact it is) However, the film is weak, very weak. Starts you off with his life as it is, then BOOM his father returns (out of the blue) and you feel great, then tragedy happens, and you feel for little Will. We then follow him on his journey and I myself couldn't help but think this gives the viewer a nice positive image of the world. Well Europe at least. But overall this film is quite literally only for Liverpool fans, I struggle myself to watch it again due to the over use of Liverpool football club. But if your looking for a tear jerker you found it!

johnbirch-2 I have to go with the minority on this. Its a workable - even interesting - idea, but surely one major (and very interesting, even dramatic) barrier to an 11 year-old crossing Europe WITHOUT A PASSPORT is how the heck through the borders (Schengen only gets you to Croatia at best!). Its not insurmountable, but pretty significant - significant enough for it to be a pretty major part of a film like this, you'd think. But no.Instead the drama is made up of daft, random, and at times very predictable, events that hang in the air and then get forgotten (like the theft, for instance) along with total fantasy nonsense such as the ending. I was even at a loss to work out who on earth the target audience was - children? Adults? Families? Cannot work it out...Its like a first draft of a script that somehow got made without anyone so much as reading it through. Indeed its worse than that - its like a film that was made up as everyone went along, with every stupid idea thrown in without consideration for anything at all.As for the acting... WTF? Did they rehearse at all?I wonder - was this one of those films made as a tax dodge...?

samat-204-884198 This is the most inspirational film I've seen in a long time. Ignore the critics—many who have criticized the emotional intensity of this film. Perhaps they are uncomfortable with their own emotions. If you have an open heart you will LOVE this movie. This is a film about overcoming life's obstacles by staying true to your heart. You will laugh, cry, feel excited, disappointed, sad, and exhilarated. This film has beautiful cinematography (see it on a big screen!) and music depicting a moving story of passion (Will's passion for football). If you're not already a Liverpool fan, seeing this movie will make you one!
