You'd have to be a heartless curmudgeon to dislike a movie as enjoyably sincere as Goal! The Dream Begins. Yes, the corny title tells you all you need to know about this rags-to-riches soccer tale, but like Hoosiers and Rudy, this conventional sports drama rises above its familiar plot with an engaging cast and some pleasant surprises along the way. The first in a proposed trilogy that will follow young Santiago Munez (Kuno Becker) as he rises to prominence in the competitive world of British soccer, this one begins by showing how Santiago, an undocumented immigrant in Los Angeles, attracts the attention of a talent scout (Stephen Dillane), who arranges a tryout for England's prestigious team, Newcastle United. It's rough going for a beleaguered trainee who suffers from asthma, but soon Santiago is befriended by a hard-partying soccer star (Alessandro Nivola) and he's on his way to reaching his…Goal! It's all very inevitable, but director Danny Cannon makes the most of this inspiring story by exploiting the unexpected subtleties in an otherwise predictable screenplay: Santigo's relationship with his seemingly unsupportive father (Tony Plana) gains additional resonance as the story unfolds; a local nurse (Anna Friel) turns out to be more than a routine love interest; and Newcastle's German manager (Marcel Iures) is a wry, colorful character who works miracles with his unruly squad of players. Add some obligatory cameo appearances by real-life soccer stars including (of course) the great David Beckham, and you've got a modest, likable hit that delivers exactly what it promises, and a little bit more. --Jeff Shannon

Great movie, and the seller's description was right on. The price was good, condition was excellent and delivery was fast.

Bought this and a couple of others for my soccer-obsessed, 12-yo son. He's seen it about 12 times, since Christmas. Loves it!! We've watched it with him, a couple of times. I was surprisingly pleased at the story's holding my interest, the charm of the lead actor, and that it made watching a bit of soccer pretty exciting. Little corny, in places, but all in all, a nice film.

fantastic. I had to get the second one through a private party. It is only found in South America and Europe. I'm waiting for the third one to come out on video. If you like coming of age films and sports underdog success story, this is for you. I compare it to the Rookie and Invincible.

This movie was too hollywood for me and we knew exactly how it would end so I gave it to a friend of mine and said he could keep it.
Rating: -
Amazing movie, not just for football fans, but for anyone. For those of you who enjoyed, the second one is equally terrific, and they will soon be releasing the third. - 5 STARS!
