Wow, this made me slightly interested in football.

09 May 2025

Now I'm not a fan of football, in fact I know as much about football as you will know about the incident with the Martians, a stapler and the gallon of dark matter that sent a third of new York's population 23 hours back in time. And I do not want to be interested in football, but this underdog story made it a little bit more interesting.

This is not a world-changing film for me, though it's worthwhile for those who want to watch it, but I would not say it will change your life. It had a sort of dry British humour that Aardman films tends to be known for. Except for the Dawn of the Nugget, which was mainly a disaster, other than that DOTN was disastrous, and they should've taken a lesson from their own title, which is an anagram for DON'T! If your movie's like Dawn of the Nugget, just Don't. You might find worth in seeing my review for Dawn of the Nugget by the way.
