Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
... it is good and caring work, with more human detail than we expect.

rotten:
Goal! is filled with cringe-inducing scenes we've seen before many, many times.

rotten:
Everything here is beyond predictable.

rotten:
The combination of button-pushing uplift, sundry sweeping helicopter shots and a bombastic score that sounds like it came on a free transfer from a Tony Scott movie proves as resistibly synthetic as the CGI-enhanced heroics on the pitch.

fresh:
It is constructed of sports movie cliches but built on an unshakable foundation of earnestness.
