Worst Film EVER?!?

Who cares about players scoring for the blades such as in this film...YOU'VE GOT......................................D A V I D G R A H A M DUM DUM DUUUUUUM! see you december the third piggie

Sean Bean wouldn't have done this film if it hadn't been the Sheffield United as he is a Blades supporter.

Speaking as a non Blades supporter I think he did a really good job.

He always wanted to play for the blades until he picked up an injury and couldn't.

Caught the last half hour of this on the telly last night, I had forgotten how utterly atrocious it was. It's not as if they didn't have a decent cast. It seems as if there'll never be a decent football movie.

Clearly, people are judging this film negatively mainly because of the club it focuses on. They probably chose United because a) the writers most likely support United and b) Because they wouldn't be able to get Sean Bean in if they'd chosen Wednesday as he's a 100% Blade.

Personally I don't think this is the worst film ever, there's much much much worse out there such as Home Alone 4 which in my opinion is the worst film I've seen. I think Bean's performance is solid as usual and I think he's great at playing working-class roles like this, having come from almost the exact background as the character of Jimmy. It in fact almost seems like a(n) (auto)Biopic of the life of Sean Bean as before he went into acting he worked in the steel works and played football before suffering a career-ending injury.

The acting overall feels very natural as the majority of the actors appear to be playing themselves. Obviously, this is no Oscar-worthy film, but yet what football films are, the makers don't tend to aspire to win awards making films like these.

I think it's a decent enough film, I don't support either Wednesday or United but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy the film. The fact it's a Bean film is enough to get me hooked as I'm a huge fan of his.
