Review of KickOff (2011) by Matty D — 14 Feb 2012
Kickoff is proudly and offbeat film. It is an unexpected pleasure. The plot centers around an English football match between a gay team, Platoon, and a straight team, the Bethnal Reapers. The script is incredibly witty and character-driven, successfully capturing the most exciting moments of this singular afternoon match-up.
The performances are spot-on, offering a duality of realism and caricatured qualities to each individual team member. If you're looking for an unexpected treat, from film makers who have taken care to humorously capture each subtle moment of this odd afternoon match-up, then add "Kickoff" to your must-see list!!
