for kids
This is a great kids movie not intended for adults but may enjoy it . I’m tired of vilent movies for kids that this is a graet movie for the familie. I’t shows kids r o try hard and adults not to ignor and to be behind r hem 100%. I personatly prefer rhe Bad News Bears becouse it shows that you dont need to win to be aucsesfull.
A feeble piece of filmmaking, but a rare look at a girls’ sports team, and fun entertainment for an undemanding audience
Reagan, 13 (played by Siena Adugong) a talented footballer (soccer player for readers in USA and Canada) gets no encouragement from parents or coaches, joins the usual team of rejects and misfits and helps them succeed. That’s all there is. No attempt is ever made to vary this entirely standard plot and it’s obvious what will happen at every stage. It’s a carelessly made, patchy film but I did quite enjoy it. I’ll run though what’s good and the worst of what’s bad.Gaining it an extra rating point, the reason I watched this in the first place and most of the reason I kept on watching: this is a rare look at a girls’ team, by contrast to the zillion sports underdog films about boys’ or men’s teams (Bad News Bears, Mighty Ducks, etc, etc.) which may or may not have a token girl. Adugong, onscreen almost every minute, does a decent acting job, and her character, as well as determined, is sweet-natured and generally adorable, helping me engage with the feel-good factor. Others may find her cloying in a Disney-TV type way. The good idea, which should set this apart from similar films, is the inclusion of a real sports star. Sadly Alex Morgan never develops much of a personality, isn’t allowed to show off her skills, and mostly just stands there spouting stock advice like ‘train hard’ and ‘use both feet’. Some of the humour based around the rubbish team and its ‘English’ coach is pretty funny.
On the negative side, apart from the wholly unoriginal plot, the acting is patchy and the script uninspiring. The depictions of actual play are particularly poor. Adugong herself looks a decent player, but the other girls, even the non-speaking extras, don’t seem to have been chosen for footballing ability. This is fine for the rejects, but they’re meant to be playing against the best teams in the state and these are no better. An example of the crude attempts to demonstrate improvement. The goalie is never shown making a save, and simply stands, watching the ball go past her, until the moment comes when she faces a penalty. On this occasion she lies down (rather than making any kind of athletic dive) and someone off-screen rolls the ball gently into her hands. Just pathetic. Maybe these film-makers know nothing about football and didn’t take advantage of having Morgan on the payroll to find out. Or maybe they just don’t care.
What annoyed me more than anything. In the USA, most boys, like Reagan’s brother, play strictly local sports (and get very excited about them) possibly because they’ve never been able to cut it at the world’s favourite. By contrast the US women’s team is the best in the world, winners at the last World Cup and Olympics. Thus football is considered mainly a girls’ game and that world-beating US national team has long had a female coach. This film seems to think girls’ teams are always coached by men. When Reagan has to produce a parent to take over as coach, she chooses Dad, who has no knowledge of the game and never displays the least athletic ability. How come Mum, who couldn’t have been any more useless, wasn’t even considered?
