Bola na Rede

Without doubt, the worst film I have ever seen. The scene in the classroom with the teacher expressing his disappointment at the presentation contains the single worst example of acting you are likely to see.

The main girl and the main guy are cute together that's all i have to say

Having sat through years of formula Barbie movies, I know the plot, characters and dialogue nearly word for word, scene by scene. Cheesy geek girls, intolerable girl bully, cute but dorky popular guy, jealousy, sabotage, dancing. Australians don't talk, act or dance like this. HUGELY Americanised. My 10yr old daughter squirmed and rolled her eyes the whole way through.

In Australia, nerdy Cory (Sofia Wylie) gets on the wrong bus. Instead of science academy, she arrives at the soccer academy. She missed the boat with her semester at sea. With no other option, she is forced to stay with the soccer academy despite never played before.

The plot is lightweight. The premise is a bit silly. There are no great hurdles other than one mean girl. I'm fine with most of that except for one main issue. The problem with an underdog sports movie is that the underdogs have to have reasons to beat the overdogs. In short, the E-team girls should be secretly good at soccer with hidden-obvious flaws. Cory can fix each girl's flaw and make them excel. One girl has bad eyesight and Cory is able to catch it. One girl has bad mechanics and Cory studies biometrics to solve it. One has some sort of psychological trauma and Cory has a heart to heart. A simplistic one is some sort of superstition as a joke. As for imparting spin on the ball, it's ridiculous that soccer players don't know about that. In the end, the young actors are cute and nice. This is a weak tween movie but it is functional in that it functions as a tween movie.

This movie overall was pretty good. But they could have fallen in love. Also they could have started to secretly date and then been found out.

But otherwise a good movie.
