The film blushes with good intentions and yet cannot fulfil its ultimate promise of discovering strength in originality.

Parents whose eight year olds have just gone crazy watching their first World Cup would be well advised to take them along, as they'll probably love it.

Perhaps most impressive of all is how the themes of ambition, friendship and life-affecting decisions are dealt with without resorting to mush or cheesy-sentiment.
