Details

Two down on their luck Liverpool cabbies, Tommy and Gerry, strike an unusual deal with a local gangster to take their sons on a trip of a lifetime, to watch their beloved football team play in the European Cup Final in Istanbul. Hoping to use the trip as a chance to bond with their sons, big trouble awaits them in the form of a sexy hotel chambermaid, two ruthless crooks on a mission and a bag of counterfeit cash. It is 3-0 down at half time and things could not be more desperate both on and off the pitch. Stevie G and the boys in red are trying to launch the most amazing football comeback in history, and Tommy is in deep water, being held hostage. With the clock ticking and time running out, a miracle is needed fast. In the end a bit of faith, and Gerry’s lucky underpants may be the only thing that can get them and the cup back home in one piece.

ThiefHott Too much of everything
Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
nicholasallt-159-973591 Great fun, film about some mad Reds who don't get to see the game. Whole family had a ball watching it. Took me back to the greatest final I've ever seen. Hilarious moments, and a great theme song.Paul Barber is one funny fella.
nwhite-21891 As a Liverpool and comedy fan I was really looking forward to this, but 10 minutes in I couldn't believe how bad it had been put together. Early on it shows the last home game of the season with rows and rows of empty seats.... this doesn't happen at Anfield. The plot is laughable beyond belief and as a result many of the actors come across very wooden, which is a shame because they have done decent stuff before. It was weird in a way because it was so bad I was compelled to watch it all the way to the end to see if it got any better... or worse.I would never watch it again but it will no doubt be a talking point of memorable films.
simon-104-362134 You don't have to be a Liverpool fan to enjoy this light-hearted caper, you don't even have to like football, based on the reaction of those around me. Paul Barber is a legend and everything he is involved in seems to turn to gold, I think he is a fine, under-estimated actor. Although the film is about the Champions league Final in Istanbul in 2005 it is about the fans and the lengths they will go to to follow their team. It is about the passing down of this devotion from one generation to the next, as Tommy (Steve Waddington) and Gerry (Paul Barber) try to connect with their sons. Tommy 's own devotion having come from a strong bond with his granddad. The Liverpool fans are the twelfth man who through all adversity never gave up on their team and on their dreams. This is shown through the shenanigans of the boys and in parallel by footage of the actual fans in the stadium. All the stories, Hitlers Cufflinks, the lucky pants etc etc apparently came from the terraces. This is the fans story. It's British , it's funny , remember The Full Monty, Bend it Like Beckham, Brassed Off, well give it a go.
bxd786 I had the luck of watching this film with some Man Utd fans (of course, they only came because they were given free tickets:-)) Film is brilliant. Had many of us in stitches throughout. Steven Waddington and Paul Barber were just excellent and gave an astounding performance of their roles - best I have seen of them so far.The film is a must for all Liverpool fans, all football fans in general and anyone who loves a good comedy. Even the Man Utd fans admitted to how great the film was and how much they enjoyed it. That says everything! Make a point of watching this if you want a good dose of fun and entertainment.
