Great fun, film about some mad Reds who don't get to see the game. Whole family had a ball watching it. Took me back to the greatest final I've ever seen. Hilarious moments, and a great theme song.Paul Barber is one funny fella.
... View MoreThat magical night in Istanbul (Trademark-Clive Tyldesley) has now inspired two films relating to Liverpool's fifth European Cup win.This is the second one. As a Liverpool supporter and being charitable I still have to admit it is not a good film but worth watching for Samantha Womack's Scouse accent and relive the events of the 2005 Champions League cup final.Two cab drivers Tommy (Steve Waddington) and Gerry (Paul Barber) try to connect with their sons and embark to see the Champions league cup final in Istanbul. However they do a deal with a local gangster to raise finances and when they arrive in Istanbul they fall foul with some gangsters over there as well.It all means that they might not actually get to see the match but still discover that Liverpool were 3-0 down in the first fifteen minutes of the match before the Gerrard inspired comeback in the second half.The plot is not much, the comedy is not great and some of the Scouse accents are dodgy. There are a few cameos and you get to see footage of the match which is a bonus.

... View MoreI had the luck of watching this film with some Man Utd fans (of course, they only came because they were given free tickets:-)) Film is brilliant. Had many of us in stitches throughout. Steven Waddington and Paul Barber were just excellent and gave an astounding performance of their roles - best I have seen of them so far.The film is a must for all Liverpool fans, all football fans in general and anyone who loves a good comedy. Even the Man Utd fans admitted to how great the film was and how much they enjoyed it. That says everything! Make a point of watching this if you want a good dose of fun and entertainment.
