    A home movie made for cinema.

    Nothing really interesting here ... you can empathise with the main carachter only if you live the delusion of living a very stupid life.

    Worth watching

    This is not a movie you want to watch a second time:the plot is very simple and the psychological characterization is basic.However the story evolves very quickly and I didn't took my eyes off the screen through the whole movie.Andrea Carpenzano confirms to be one of the best young italian actors.

    For (European) football lovers

    The movie itself is no different from many of the same kind: The smart rebel who's got almost everything but is an underdog in school and needs help basically growing up. The comparison with the older "Scialla" is almost immediate.

    The perk of the movie stands in the football related background and in the Accorsi's character resulting a nice entertainment for a boring Sunday afternoon of a soccer-free summer.

    Just can't resist these both charming men

    It's a great film for entertaining, this thinking comes to mind in the first 20 mins, and then the story evolves to a lonely boy inside the gifted but rebellious football star. you can't use one sentence to tell how the main role is, what personality he is. I love to see a "Character", here has two. Andrea Carpenzano is really Charming charming charming! A boyfriend material.

    Regular...

    Initially the film fulfills its objective, aversion and dislike for the marred protagonist and mainly for his friendships, he totally hates... The film follows a traditional cake recipe, but it doesn't captivate me, poor rebel suggests more pity than the badboys playboys.. But it was very realistic, unsatisfactory outcome, perhaps unfair, however realistic, it represents a lot of our wealthy and lacking in sense young people... Regular...
