5.0 out of 5 stars When Saturday Comes(Staring Sean Bean,Emily Lloyd), 8 Dec 2004
When Saturday Comes is a footBall Drama Film set in Sheffield about a boy called Jimmy Muir who as we first seen him has two options after his last day at School he can rather go down the pit or work down at the Factory as suggested by his careers advisor at School.But the boy has other ideas he wants to play professional football thats all he has ever wanted to do.
Some years later that boy has grown up and becomes Sean Beans Character(Adult)Jimmy Muir and works at a Factory.The film then goes through the various trails and tributations of him experiencing family life,romance with Emily Lloyd(the romance interest) who he meets at the factory,his sucess on the football pitch playing for the local pub football team, and how he manages his life.
All in all i would say i enjoyed watching this film,if you are in to a football as well as Sean Bean,ie you like some of the films that he has done then its well worth a look

3.0 out of 5 stars Classic hero stuff, but rough., 30 Jul 2004
By S. D. Hawkins "SteveDJ" (Waltham Abbey, Essex, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: When Saturday Comes [VHS] [1996] (VHS Tape)
If you like football, this is the main reason you're eyeing up this movie. Well, you'll get your football and your Roy of the Rovers heroics, plus some healthy touches such as the pain as well as the glory of a so-called top lifestyle.

The whole atmosphere of the film is pretty coarse, but there are intersting takes on the rather absent father-son relationship, and an excellently played mother - very understated but effective.

But I guess most of you want to see goals, imagine you are playing for your dream team, so this will stimulate a daydream or two!
