Exquisite that is one of the words I can use to describe this brilliant film. I expected this film to be cheap, tacky and over rated but this is the complete opposite. This film is about the illegal into America Santiago Munez who is scouted by Newcastle United and flies over seas to England without his fathers permission and then his life turns from rags to riches. I liked that it shows that when you're committed to something you can do anything even if you're not in a big team, as this shows how he would risk the whole of his life at the start for his football. Now that is what I call commitment! My favourite character in the film is Gavin Harris as he's very layed back and doesn't appreciate how good he must really be. I also like Gavin Harris because he seems stick up but actually help Santiago play football. So this is why I've rated this film 5*!
