Dream

"It's not about winning. It's about showing up and never giving up."

I love sports movies that just hit different, you know? It's not even about the game half the time, it's about people fighting their own battles, feeling lost, broken, but still choosing to keep going. Funny, real, and somehow way more emotional than i thought it'd be. Park Seo-Joon and IU brought so much life to their roles, and the story wasn't just about soccer, it was about finding family and purpose.

Sports movies are honestly my favorite hopecore; messy, imperfect, but full of heart. They remind me that even when life feels impossible, there's always a chance to rise and heal.

I probably gave an extra point as I adore iu (Lee Ji Eun) and admire Park Seo-joon and I think the best part of the movie is their interactions. The movie looks at a group of down on their luck men who enter the homeless World Cup representing Korea, and their manager who initially is not interested and a young documentary maker. The movie aims to be a feel good motivational film about succeeding against adversity but I found it lacked any depth and the storyline was easily predictable. The advantage with the simplicity is that it is a movie which can be enjoyed as a family, where the underdogs win the hearts of the onlookers.

Hopeful, emotional, sweet and uplifting!!

I was waiting for this movie for SO long, I think it was because if covid that was paused and it's finally here!

Big fan of Park Seo Joon and IU and first time ever seeing them together in something makes it so cool!

Fave part is the very special cameo of the amazing Kang Ha Neul who was Park Seo Joon co star in Midnight Runners and also acted with IU in the super famous kdrama Moon Lovers.

I love how quirky all characters are, the comedy its on point (Korean style comedy) and has the right amount of drama but doesn't get too heavy.

The overall stories are very emotional and you will find yourself going through a lot of different feelings throughout the whole movie, rooting for the characters to find happiness and keep fighting to beat the demons that once brought them to the situation they are in.

The message of the movie itself is very moving: Everyone in life has a different story and background and you will never know what will happen to you, so be kind, never give up and fight for what your want and for the people you love.

You will cry and smile with them and at the end you will have an amazing feeling of hope.

Watch it and enjoy this super heartwarming movie!

So maybe we're unfair with the low reviews, maybe we'd love it if we were 8? I had no idea what to expect but I couldn't wait to watch anything with PSJ and IU. Unfortunately I was let down but I still love these actors and I guess it's ok if they decide to do movies like that. The premise was cute and somehow interesting so no hard feelings. But yeah, watch it with your kids and write a review based on their opinion so we can have a more objective view.

If you like the actors and you're an adult, you should definitely watch Hwarang, Itaewon Class, Midnight Runners, She Was Pretty, and my all time favorite Fight For My Way with Park Seo Joon. And My Mister with IU. To see what they're normally capable of and suitable for.

It's excalty and more than you expected.

It's sweet cheesy and heart felt film . Every character has their time to shine .

Don't look deep into the silly plot points such as having a homeless world cup for soccer exclusively to homeless people obviously.

Some might find somethings not progressive enough such as one if the members of the team in love with a woman who has a disability of speech and they say mentally ill.

The dream real for this movie and is shows how creativity is dying in the west when something so simple as this film is much more creative and what they did with a small budget .
