A sweetly hilarious romantic comedy about a soccer fan whose favorite pro team's unexpected success threatens to push him over the edge.
Vastly superior to the small and independent films that have come out during the last six months.
If you don't operate on the premise that soccer is the most important thing in the universe, you might not go along with everything in Fever Pitch.
The story is unmemorable, but the characters are engaging and their predicaments are all too recognizable.
It's an amiable enough picture, and genuinely insightful about the emotional appeal of devoted fandom.
This frantic tale seems at once preachy and incoherent, collapsing into a more or less random collection of disconnected, unfocused scenes.
The entire matter of totemistic home-team dementia is roasted on a spit and then embraced for all its sorry pointlessness.
