    A nice family-movie

    I have seen the movie 2 times, and I like this style of movie very well. It's with a lot of humor. A little bit a family movie. The actors are in Belgium all famous and they do it all well in this movie. For those who likes that movie, there is also a second movie of it. Team spirit II (2003). Also a movie of director "Jan Verheyen". That guy has lot of Belgium movies. And the movies of jan are always great. I hope you watch the movie.

    At least worth looking at it

    This Belgian movie about a group of friends who play soccer together during the weekend,is constructed into a nice little movie.Considering the low budget this film was made with,it looks rather good,certainly when you know that lots of wellknown actors in Belgium are playing in it.I'd liked it.No more,no less.Jan Verheyen did it one more time again.All his films were at least worth looking at it.

    A very good film about: sport, love and REAL friendship!

    This is beautiful film. About sport, love, football, work, family and REAL friendship. I don't understand why everybody hates this movie. OK it's a remake of "All Stars" (1997). but so what. I like this because i am from Belgium. it has a good story, and a beautiful soundtrack! with some outstanding tracks. Such as: "Forever Young" by Paul Michiels, and some songs bu the Belgian singer Jan Leyers. The actors where also very good. (Michael Pas, Matthias Sercu, Arnold Willems, Tine Reymer and all the rest i have forgot.) And also the camera work was fantastic. The film has nice camera tricks. I Like this movie. it belongs to one of my favorite movies.

    Very predictable and cheap, but rather good fun

    This (Belgian) film is based on the Dutch film ALL STARS, about a bunch of lifelong friends, who have been playing soccer together since they were kids. Each of them has his story to tell and some of them have made more out of life than the others. I wished there had been more of a story to it, but it's all presented in a rather sketchy kind of way. Very often, director Jan Verheyen "uses" the characters to set up for a funny scene. In this way, the characters never seem to transcend the caricatures they are. The aim was definitely to make people laugh and they succeeded in doing that, but it also makes the few "emotional" scenes look rather unreal.(the flashback scenes of the players as young boys are for example totally useless) Sometimes you don't really know whether to laugh or cry at the scene. The acting however was very good(especially by the leads Axel Daeseleire and Tom van Landuyt, some of the best younger actors in Belgium)and the many cameos were funny too. But I guess you have to be Belgian to really appreciate all of it. The film is so typical Belgian(or should I say Flemish?)that I don't think it will appeal to many foreign viewers.(but perhaps that's not the purpose of the film) A thing I also found rather noticeable about the film was the sound-track, which is filled with different sorts of Belgian bands. It shows that Belgium too has all sorts of good music and that it's not a coincidence that these bands are frequently used for Hollywood(and other foreign) sound-tracks.

    All in all, an often pleasing film, just don't look for a deeper sense in it. 6/10

    stupid, unnecessary remake!

    Team Spirit is maybe made by the best intentions, but it misses the warmth of "All Stars" (1997) by Jean van de Velde. Most scenes are identic, just not that funny and not that well done. The actors repeat the same lines as in "All Stars" but without much feeling.
