The second part of the story about a Mexican guy who had his dream come true fell short of its predecessor. What annoyed me was that it was just an undisguised ad for FIFA this time. The filmmakers too often left the field and got deep in drama without knowing how to go about it. The result, in my opinion, was a rather confusing mishmash, showing famous footballers posing but not offering much beyond that. All the subplots were weirdly half-baked, and the main story was filled with so many "subtle" hints that it must have been obvious to any average viewer how it would all turn out. All the family and relationship issues were dealt with in such a cursory manner that I could totally see the filmmakers getting lost in the script. It’s a good example of how you should stick with what you know and not get ahead of yourself. / Lesson learned. Are you getting old? It might be because of your age.
