DVD Description
CORRUPTION, MONEY, POWER - THE NOT SO BEAUTIFUL GAME

From locker room to board room, All In The Game rips open the underbelly of our national game to reveal the seedy and cut-throat dealings of a Premiership club. Here, money and power are the driving forces behind the game. Local hero and football manager Frankie (Winstone) is torn between loyalty to his son (Dyer) and the club he loves. But when his son's underhand negotiations look set to make him a fortune, the pressure hots

up and the game is almost forgotten. Greed and manipulation replace football and relationships between fan and club, player and manager and father and son are seen in the dirty, manipulative, money making machine that modern football has become. There are no heroes in this game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top Notch, 28 April 2007
By Bram (Hertford) - See all my reviews
Absorbing. If you like Ray Winstone and football, but are slightly cynical about our beautiful game, then this is a must. Fantastically written, and wonderfully directed, a real treat.

1.0 out of 5 stars Well wide of the mark, 15 Dec 2007
Okay, so the good thing about Ray Winstone, is that he's an intense performer. You cannot fault his energy and passion, though sometimes, when the writing isn't strong enough he can fall back on these assets too much. Let me explain. As any of you who saw that drivel 'King Arthur' would have noticed; he tends to go a little OTT. In 'All In The Game' he does this to a cringe-worthy extent. In fact, it leaves you feeling half-gripped and half-embarassed for his out-of-place zeal.

This film has very little poise or cunning in it's approach of the football topic. Clearly catering for a 'lads mag' mindset to football politics - it's simply an extended version of 'Footballer's Wives' but aimed at WKD blokes instead of bingo winged lambrini girls. The writing is clumsy and Winstone's dialogue depicts a kind hammy cockney geezer caracture - like if Terry Venables in a bad mood... and on acid. Yes at times his acting is absorbing, such is the vein bursting gusto he puts into every line. Spit frothing. Red-faced. Clattering and stamping across the screen. But it's all in vain, rather, just a vent of frustration at such a poor script to work with.

I like Ray but he has a tendency to pick bad projects and substitute good acting for rowdy shouting. When he gets it right, it's close to genius, like a British Al Pacino. Crucially, this film is yet more proof that films and football just don't go together.
