"Bend It Like Beckham" est une charmante comédie qui vous rappellera de ne pas abandonner et de suivre vos rêves. La réalisatrice Gurinder Chadha utilise l'humour cultivé et subtil pour mettre en contraste deux cultures diamétralement opposées. Et elle sait travailler avec les acteurs comme peu d'autres. Je me souviens surtout de la jeune Parminder Nagra. Si vous aimez les comédies originales avec une touche britannique, si vous croyez que les rêves se réalisent et que vous êtes un peu un outsider incompris, n'hésitez pas. Ce n'est peut-être pas "Billy Elliot", mais c'est certainement un film qui vous apportera quelque chose.

If you agree to play the creators’ game here, then, as a harmless family TV movie with an obligatory message, it’s quite all right. However, it lacks the humor to make it a comedy, the matches or races to make it a sports movie and the relationships to make it a teenage “relationships" movie. The would-be sports sequences are edited and directed appallingly, but there luckily there are so few of them that they don’t get a chance to get on your nerves. The girls are likeable, although Keira is still a kid really, but they are tripped up by the shaky beginning and the unbearable length. The filmmakers deserve to get a red card for that. But it has no problem keeping up with the substitutes on the mundane movies bench, that we see dozens of every year. If you don’t mind the downsides, I see no reason for not setting off down the path toward a big dream, encountering prejudice from the family and the outside world.

A contradictory film – either you love it or you don't understand how anyone can love it. I'm one of those who doesn't get it. Too overcooked for me. The film certainly doesn't deserve to carry Beckham in its title. The only positive thing here is the beautiful Keira. Nothing else.

A likable sports comedy from two different worlds. Given that I don’t like Keira Knightley and that I was a bit disappointed with the subsequent Bride and Prejudice, I had a nice feeling from this relaxing film. Jonathan Rhys Meyers was already well on his way to becoming Henry. :) Thanks for the donations, this is a good solution.

A brisk and funny comedy that pleasantly surprised me. The biggest credit for this probably goes to the two main actresses, who I have grown quite fond of with this film.

I enjoyed this movie years ago, so I was quite happy to refresh my memory of it. I like Indian culture, even though it's quite unique. I enjoy football, which is simply a straightforward and unique sport, and of course, I love good movies. This is a fairly good comedy that has strong characters in the lead roles. It's nice to look at.
