GOAL:

A film by Danny Cannon; targeted to promote football in the United States. Goal is another feel good and inspirational movie. Where the protagonist shows that a dream would never be let down if a person has such persistence and strong hold to that vision.

Santiago Muñez is the main character played by Kuno Becker, a Mexican immigrant who works with his dad as a gardener but have an undeniable talent for football. Football clearly is his passion in life and while playing in a community football, a talent scout spots him thus opening an opportunity for him to play professionally.

Expectedly, Santiago keeps interest in the offer and decides to pursue the chance. However his father is against it and has made ways to stop Santiago. Amidst the heartbreak from his father’s acts, Santiago still fated to arrive at Newcastle with the help of his Grandmother. Santiago then proceeded to his try-out and showed that hard work and focus would then bring answered prayers.

GOAL is one of the films that will remind you on how to achieve your dreams. Despite the challenges that befalls you, most especially from a valuable relationship. It proves a point that one should pursue one’s passion. That in the end it will bring us happiness and that eventually our relationships will see to understand and be proud of our achievement.

Heartwarming experience, especially with the relationship of Santiago and his Dad, but simply it tells us that nothing is impossible…
