I went to see this film as a colleague said it was good. I pretty much had no other idea what it was when I entered the theater.
The story is well narrated, put together in the "show not tell" method. You figure it out as you go along.
I found it fascinating on many levels. The character that Cantona plays adds depth and sparkle to the beginning of the story, when it all seems so lack luster. Seeing all the different stories coming together and seeing Eric pull himself together makes for a phenomenal story. At no point was I bored or did I lose interest in the movie.
It was only afterward that I found out who Cantona is and that he was even played by himself. The film completely worked even without knowing this beforehand.
Enjoyable, heartwarming and fascinating - I'll definitely be recommending this to friends.
