Review Time
Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/references to drugs and homosexuality
Dyer & Jones are back for
another kickabout: briefly; we meet
Mark Lamanuzzi [Danny Dyer:] he has recently got married to the one he loves,
but the only thing he has equal love for is the game of football/soccer; in
this case the England football team through a European Championships, so he
will eventually have to choose between one of his loves. The Boss [Vinnie
Jones:] he is a internal character in Mark/Dyer's head that runs him like a
football manager of England as Mark/Dyer is English with his England T-shirt
on, so not necessarily the England football/soccer team.
Generally speaking: the framework is well laid out to incorporate; the
internal, external and sometimes both components of this film with a base rate
of good pacing of this 94 minutes film; we also have this commentary pairing of
John Smith-Jones and Alan O'Luan [Jonathan Broke and Mark Lynch:] for this film
they work for Flying On The Ball: to give us this exciting match between this
newly married husband-and-wife, the action; football matches are sometimes
brought to us by this exquisite art/animation; as they really put across; let's
just say the positive components to being of any gender a football/soccer fan;
I can really appreciate the high level of imagination as it relates to the
comedy and art, the internal character developments and performances are good;
but it also has to be said that Dyer and Jones have an excellent on-screen
connection. The reason why I have grouped it all together or mostly altogether
is because instead of clutching at straws; it would just be easier for me to
say this; they very much at one point or another work simultaneously together.
Comedy,
Character developments and performances; yes we do have some mature comedy
references such as for a clean version Mark's new in-laws hearing too much on
the telephone, the kind of things that you don't want to know and things you
won't forget in a hurry, the external character developments and performances
on both counts are good and the same can be said for performances as well.
This film receives: 8/10, this film is excellent; for it is unique football
take on his honeymoon provided by this commentary team, the internal and
external comedy and the art, yes it can be seen as a little bit cheesy, but on
the whole this marking is richly deserved. This film also has 1 Winner
accredited award to its name in the form of Fantasporto 2006 Audience Jury
Award Richard Nockles Marlowe Fawcett
