Les Monstres du foot

The Movie The Soccer Football Movie is the worst Movie ever. It was so INAPPROPRIATE, cruel, and scary, what's I saw in the movie was mutant slugs that control people, becoming monsters and steal their talents, making Weird Al the bad guy, and a pony tail hair came to life, absorb all slugs, and turn into an giant ugly monster, with it's eye and tentacles in it's big mouth. There's also four young kids that fight monsters, living in a broken down van (almost like they're homeless and orphans with no families), Please do not watch that movie, I'm warning anyone, everyone, anything and everything.

It seems like this movie was written by a team of 13 year olds and their 80 year old grandparents, then translated to Bosnian and back again. With 1996 animation employed by high school AV clubs. Just unbelievably bad and unfunny. I think Zlatan, Megan, and Weird Al share an agent who had an extra thousand bucks and wanted to make their own commercial advertising their voice abilities in hopes of scoring big jobs later. Basically an audition tape that we were forced to watch. Everyone involved with this production should lose their jobs and get manula labour jobs and never talk to people ever again. And Zlatan sounds like Noho Hank.

Where do I start?! Truly awful. I'm not sure what age rating this is, but I don't think it's suitable for a six year old. He didn't seem too bothered, but there are some bits that could be considered a bit too scary for younger audiences. There is definitely some references to Aliens and Prometheus in this movie, not that the younger folk would get it, thankfully! I'm not really quite sure what Netflix were thinking when they made this. It's not exactly for soccer fans, or even people who aren't soccer fans. Maybe it was a vanity project for someone? My advice would be to avoid as best you can. I certainly don't think it's one that will be watched again in this house!!

The film that turns Zlatan Ibrahimovic into Darwin Núñez, basically.

A cheap gag from a Manchester United supporter out the way, this is a rather bad flick. I'm not sure what I was expecting but it wasn't this. Its plot is practically 'The Incredible Hulk' meets 'Ghostbusters', which sounds way cooler than it actually is.

'The Soccer Football Movie' is not only boring, not only bland but also extremely tedious to sit through - though, thankfully, it only lasts for around 1hr 15minutes. The animation is very cheap-looking, something that shouldn't be so with a company like Netflix involved. Then you also have a very lacklustre voice cast.

Tania Gunadi is the only member that sticks out in my mind away from the people playing themselves, though that's probably only because I remember her from 2013's 'Snow Bride'. All those alongside Gunadi are... not the best. Kieran Walton's pronunciation of Zlatan grates, also.

Yep, that's correct. Zlatan Ibrahimovic voices himself in this and features fairly heavily. In all honesty he, given he isn't an actor, is actually fine, but him - alongside 'Weird Al' Yankovic and Megan Rapinoe - being your production's main star meant it was always likely to fall flat unfortunately.

This only avoids a lower rating as there are many worse films out there. Still, this 2022 release is probably one to avoid.

Boring, unfunny and pointless. If you want a fun football-based cartoon then go dig out Early Man as at least that's an enjoyable watch, but I have no idea what they are trying to achieve here or who the target audience is.

Why would you cast Weird Al Yankovic in one of the main roles in a kids movie, no child on this Earth has heard of him!

As for the film itself, it's a random mishmash of strange scenes that don't knit together, and is somehow worse than the sum of its parts. Clearly released now to cash in on "World Cup Fever" and yet still they've managed to make something that's more uncomfortable than Qatar human rights abuses.

It feels like it goes in forever, yet is only around the 80 minute mark. Woefully bad.
