Trivia:
Ally McCoist, who plays a former Celtic player is, in real life, a former Rangers player (the Celtic-Rangers rivalry is emphasized in the film). In the stock footage in which they show McCoist in his glory days, they actually super-impose Celtic colors on to his blue Rangers shirts. Even though, in the movie, he is wearing green and white, the design of the kit is obviously that of Glasgow Rangers. more

I just saw this movie on TV, and watched mainly for the appearance of Michael Keaton, one of my favorite actors, who always does a great job, whether in a comedy or a drama. This film is well worth watching, in particular for Robert Duvall's performance, and his mastery of the Scottish accent. When I first heard him speak I had to look twice, to be sure it was "himself". What a heartwarming, and exciting film it is! Even if you're not a soccer fan, there is plenty of action, along with the heart and humor. Most entertaining.
