OK, I will confess that I had never heard of the ‘Homeless World Cup‘ & thought it was made up. Kind of cute that there is such an event. If it is popular, a success & does something to HELP the homeless (a cause very dear to my heart) I am all in favor.
I watched it because it was BRITISH, I like ‘Bill Nighy’ (though I had to look up his game) & because I usually like such ‘true story‘ movies.
It is definitely OK. Some lovely shots of Rome. But, it is also, JUST OK. Not great.
Contrived. But, hey …
I happened to see on the news that folks are enjoying it. Think it is a good ‘feel good‘ movie for Easter. Good for them. I won’t stand in there way.
Go for it. It is watchable.
