This was an enjoyable romp through the arena of professional soccer...Bernal and Luna were good as the two brothers who get in over their heads in a world they can't handle....I was entertained and never bored....

This is one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time!! The gags are silly, sexists and the ending melodramatic in an excess typical of many Latin American telenovelas....

The gang behind Y tu Mama Tambien reunite, this time with Cuaron's younger brother taking the directing/screenplay duties. The film smartly doesn't try to duplicate the melancholic depth of the earlier film, but creates its own pathos primarily through dumbass guy screwball on location in Mexico. It's like Landis meets De Sica. Spanish continues to be a much better dirty-mouth language than English.

Reunião dos astros de E SUA MÃE TAMBÉM, Diego Luna e Gael Garcia Bernal, com o co-roteirista daquele filme, Carlos Cuarón, que aqui estréia como diretor de longas. O roteiro é previsível, com os altos e baixos dos atletas, mas diverte e, no limite, reafirma os laços fraternos.

I thought it was hysterical the Tex-Mex version of Cheap Trick's "I Want You To Want Me" the accordion accompaniment was spot-on! A good portrayal of sibling rivalry and what the perils of success can do to a person specially when you go from being marginal to nouveau riche to marginal all over again. Football is not a sport it is a way of life for many.

I saw this film in Guadalajara in 12/2008. It was a pretty good at presenting the culture of futbol in Mexico, and the underlying thirst for success that drives the relatively innocent characters to sell their souls. I could see how this film would work well in every country except the US, unless the populace can look past the soccer-heavy plot.
