  • Starring: Alessandro Nivola, Anna Friel, Kuno Becker
  • Summary: Real Madrid beckons for the Toon Army's favorite player: Santiago Muñez. While his fiancé, Roz, plans their wedding in Newcastle, he realizes every soccer player's dream and gets to wear the legendary white shirt alongside David Beckham, Zinedine Zidane, and Raúl. Mirroring the paths of many soccer legends before him, Santiago basks in the glory, the acclaim, and the money in the second part of the trilogy, only for this illusion of happiness to be shattered and his life destroyed.

    Filmically it's more of a pleasantly diverting kick about in the park than a 90th minute back-of-the-net at the world cup final.

    David Beckham may star in Goal II: Living the Dream but calling him an actor is like calling his wife a singer.

    The rags-to-near-riches saga of "Goal!" has turned into a risible riches-are-awful tale in Goal II: Living the Dream.

    It was awesome! Gavin Harris was amazing, and it was very entertaining. I thought that any shorter would have been too short.

    Way overlong, a significant amount could have been cut without effecting the film. Pleasing performances, soccer fans will enjoy it. The film is rather pointless, and the characters are very shallow. Too many boring stretches.… Expand

    Saw this on a plane across the Atlantic and it was so bad that I could not even finish it. If you are a big football fan there are a load of cameos.
