You don't even recognise him in CoM. Hunnam is absolutely superb in that role. He's a brilliant actor.

Too much fighting, not enough football!

Not a hell of a lot of football in it though :lol:

Football Factory is pretty decent if you like Green Street/The Firm.

I definitely didn't ever imagine that being possible when I first saw Green Street...especially considering Sons wasn't even in existence at the time. He is a quality actor though, his role in Children of Men albeit brief was pretty impressive too, and he has done very well in Sons.



With the history and cultural significance of football in places such as Europe and Latin America during important and fascinating historical moments the stories are definitely out there, I mean there are some incredible stories out there. No sport has such a cultural and political importance as football, if a Hollywood studio was willing to take a risk with the financing, it wouldn't be hard to produce a quality screen play that could strike it big imo.

Looking for Eric is probably my favourite, amasing film.

Game of their lives wasn't too bad, remember stumbling upon that on TV one time. The Goals are all pure drivel though, can't stand them.

Goal 3 was a terrible movie!

Miracle of berne

I actually haven't seen many football movies, I enjoyed the Goal movies except for Goal 3 and I've seen Bend it Like Beckham. I've been meaning to watch Green Street Hooligans for the longest time but keep forgetting about it.

Haven't watched it in full. Was on TV a few months back, fell asleep.

I remember the part where his rival gets sent off for flopping his snag out at the ref :lol:

Just relised this :shock:

Haven't seen it, but did read the plot on wikipedia, and yes, it sounds terrible.

The second GSH was rubbish imo

^^Loved this^^

Who would have thought that the bloke on the right would have ended up in Sons of Anarchy.

Mean Machine proved that the UK can completely f**k up American movies in exactly the same manner that the US can f**k up British sit-coms.

Awful, awful movie.

Yeah but its better then the longest yard and has football?

Sooo....?

Mean machine doesn't count because it's just a rip-off of The Longest Yard.

the game of their lives. usa in the world cup. brilliant movie.

"The World Cup - A Captain's Tale" is a fantastic one, once you get past professional Cockney Denis Waterman trying to be a Geordie.

Bloody years since I've seen this - skip past the first 3 1/2 minutes of junk in the 60s.

Also, if Gregory's Girl counts, do we count The Heartbreak Kid?

If the film is about teen angst and just happens to include some football, it's hardly a 'football movie'.

Although best movie ever goes to;

Where da fuck is Mean Machine?

Michael McGlinchey much?!?!?!

The damn united is gold! could watch that all day!

Also was given a film on the East German team from the 1974 World Cup, it was in German, but with sub-titles it was still fantastic!

Must be the time difference.
