I guess this film is the portrait of many soccer players over the world, a topic not so often spoken about, because it reveals not so fairy tale like things. I expected a bit more, something rougher, tougher, but this is not bad at all. It must be seen more than a documentary than a true movie based on actors performances. Focus on the true face behind the mask of those young men who make millions of football - soccer - fans dream. I confess that the main character annoyed me a bit, I don't know why, and I think it was both the actor and the character, this young talent wasting it, romancing his chick instead of focusing on his sport involvment. And the girl character is also very puzzling, because she can't understand that this young man has to concentrate on his career. She doesn't accept to be put in the second place. Why doesn't she accept this? OK, it is a movie inspired from the actual life of this young man. But when you are hit by a truck, even a slowing down truck, I guess you are in a severe condition, more than after a fall in a staircase. And that's precisely what this young man's face look like after the accident; just a couple of scratches on the face. In real life, I guess the face of the real character whom this film is inspired from looked really in a far worst condition.
