Fantastic skills; shame about the film
Cederic20 December 2005
This film is really just an excuse to show off the skills of its stars. And they are immensely talented, with quite magical skill.

A simple premise, perhaps inspired by TV adverts also starring Edgar Davids, but ultimately too simple, inadequately explored. I wanted more from the film than just showing off the talents of the cast. Those talents would be better served as half-time entertainment in the final of a major tournament.

There is minimal dialogue in the film; there's minimal acting really too. This sparsity helps focus on the skills on display; regrettably it also highlights how little happens in this short film.

Watch it anyway - or fly to Holland and seek out these people. They are something to behold.

Frest (modern, silent, sci-fi, action film)
nannaeshof27 January 2012
In a time where we see guns and fighting as an element in films. This great short shows what you can do with street-soccer as a fighting element. I love that the story is told visually and without any dialog. It's a modern, silent, sci-fi, action film. A original and great execution. It was also great to see all the soccer legends at the end of the short. I have not seen a short film with this element. It would be great to see a feature film with this subject instead of guns and fighting. It reminds me of game of death from Bruce Lee but then there is street-soccer as the battle element. Will there be a 'League of Legends 2'?
