I like both leads in this. Winslet is a female favourite and Carey a classic in some of his film ventures, but this never engaged me. I didn't get the connection between Clementine and Joel at all. Yeah, opposites attract and all that, but Clementine seemed like an annoying dill, Joel a depressing sad-sack and I couldn't see the relationship working. So when there are problems in the relationship from the jump I'm meant to care as the viewer? The plot about removing memories and such was interesting, and the subplot links nicely in with the main characters' issues but nothing is that special about it and some scenes felt somewhat disjointed. 3-2.5.

As an 11/12 year old I remember hearing 'Kyle's Mom's a Bitch' on the radio and finding it very humorous, and I feel like that is the demographic who would find this film funny as I watch it in my early 20s. Perhaps more than most episodes, the jokes almost purely revolve around swearing to the point of over-over-over kill and don't get me started on Terrance and Phillip... It surprises me that with the rating this was always going to receive in many countries that they were put in. Do young adults or late teens for that matter still find their fart jokes funny? The whole Saddam and Satan relationship is painfully unfunny also. This is kind of where I stand with the television series itself. When it's clever there are some good episodes, but too often I feel like it's for children who get kicks out of hearing three animated children swear at each other. That may come across as pretentious but that's just my thoughts. The plot pretty much focuses on satirising censorship (it's okay to show extreme violence but not explicit language-hence all the swearing) and the whole Canadian/American relationship that has been done many times. The intense Mole character, the hospital scene, and Bill Gates getting shot when he's trying to explain how fast Windows 98 is was mildly amusing, but overall this comedy didn't do much for me as the rating suggests.

The will-they-won't-they, toing and froing between Pete and Mary gets old in this. It's almost romance as a primary genre. Mary gets pissed off at Pete when she sends mixed messages. Some scenes are cringe-worthy such as Mary Jane talking to Pete while he is holding a wall over her. Move!!! There was another key one as well that isn't coming to me at the moment. Doctor Octopus makes for some good action scenes but can't save it. The whole Harry Osborn getting revenge on Spider-Man sub-plot doesn't come to much either. 2-2.5

This is a decently made film about the beginnings of the Mexican mafia that is based on a true story but takes a number of liberties with its source material. Some aspects aren't completely fleshed out either and I don't think you get the enormity of the mafia once Montoya is on the outside. It's never boring and features some noteworthy scenes, but at times I couldn't get past the characters ending every sentence with "esé" or "homes". It just got annoying. I also feel some of the actors were trying too hard, including with their Latino accents. William Forsythe being one of the main culprits.

With each Goal movie that has come, the focus off the pitch has increased from the director and writers. In this instalment, there really isn't a huge amount of football that we see (for a football movie), and when we do it rarely features the actors - most of it is just real footage from the 2006 FIFA World Cup. The story itself centres largely around Charlie Braithwaite and Liam Adams (he cracks a strange expression on the DVD cover if you ask me) who play in the FIFA World Cup for England. While Mexican Santiago Munez is only able to watch from the box as the three were involved in a car accident a week or so out from the World Cup and Santi came out of it with a broken arm. While sports films have the tendency to be predictable there were moments in this you don't quite expect. Such as when Charlie starts going into convulsions and dies, and as I mentioned earlier not seeing the star from the previous Goal movies get to kick a ball was also surprising and disappointing. As I mentioned the lack of the actors being involved in the actual play to me seemed possibly like a cost-cutting procedure. The first two were released on the big screen with this only being a DVD release so that adds to my feelings. Furthermore, when they do actually green screen the actors into the real footage, it doesn't look as crisply done as before. Another thing about the story is when it ends, which is when England lose to Portugal in a penalty shoot out which is of course what exactly happened in reality. So I guess if they won the tournament then that would have been the plot. Maybe that is part of the reason as to why they went with the England and not the Mexico based storyline as they thought they would get more out of England in the tournament. Lastly, the message this film sends in many ways is that while important, a game of football isn't the end of the world, with friends and family and so forth being the key to happiness. An enjoyable football trilogy if not anything spectacular.
