“An enthusiastic but ultimately uninspired soccer film.”

Director David Anspaugh has a skilled touch, but there's just not that much drama to film. This is a very competent, very predictable sports film.

...lacks even a penalty kick's worth of tension and is paradoxically inert for a movie about guys running up and down the pitch for the glory of the U.S.

Great game, bad storytelling. Soccer buffs only.
