- Who'll love it
- If you count yourself among anyone who loves an underdog and families, this one's for you. You don't need to know the game to feel the big moments. Fans of Million Dollar Baby or Match Point should feel right at home.
- The mood
- Feel-good.
- The pace
- Paced for all ages, at 1 hr 38 min.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
