Synopsis

In this remake of THE LONGEST YARD, Robert Aldrich's 1974 Burt Reynolds prison tale concerning inmates who organize themselves into a football team and compete against the guards, British director Barry Skolnick pulls together a ruthlessly funny cast and changes the resident sport to soccer. The leader of the prisoners, played by Vinnie Jones (LOCK, STOCK, AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS), is a former soccer star who is asked by the warden to coach a team of prison guards. Instead, he offers to put together a team of inmates, who will be able to scrimmage with the guards' team.

5.0 out of 5 stars classic humour, 11 Nov 2003
By A Customer
If you're in the mood for mindless entertainment that will make you laugh spontaneously and not require indepth thinking for hidden meanings, then this is film to watch. Totally switched off from daily life and had a really good laugh. The match at the end is brilliantly funny - especially the commentators Bob and Bob. Up there with Snatch, Lock Stock and Sexy Beast.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Film, 10 Feb 2003
Ok, this film won't make you think, and it won't leave you thinking about it for days afterwards. However, it will, if you're anythign like me, leave you crying with laughter. Jason Statham, who has acted very well on Snatch, provides 2 of the funniest moments in film history with his goalkeeping antics. Me and my friends all agree on this. U need to see the football match at the end. The commentary by Bob and Bob is also absolutely halerious, and worth the price itself. The rest of the film is also very good, but the highlights come from the last about 30 mins, in the form of the football match. Classic! a must see!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Mega fun, 5 Aug 2008
By Dead Ted Danson (Truth Or Consequences, New Mexicock) - See all my reviews
  
Any movie about football that can win over a footbla hater is bound to be good, and take my word, this is a short, fun, no-brainer, infintely rewatchable and hugely enjoyable.

In addition to Vinnie Jones and Jason Statham , about 76% of Guy Ritchie's cache of bit-parters show up as well. As usual, Statham steals the show, though Jones is awesome in it as are all the other sterotypes. If it weren't for Danny Dyer this would have been a five-star movie.
