Review of The Damned United (2009) by Andrew P — 24 May 2010
I am not a football fan and can hardly tell Leeds United from United Nations. But this flick is really enthralling. Actually it's Michael Sheenâ??s show all the way and I have a feeling that some years down the road, you would see him give an Oscar worthy performance.
Already in Frost/Nixon and The Queen (where he played Tony Blair) he has proved that he is THE next underdog to watch for. The biggest plus of TDU is its capacity to hold your attention, even if you don't know anything about the English premier league.
Even I goggled Brian Clough after watching this! Good little drama and highly recommended.
