The Bromley Boys Movie Download

7 / 10

A bit slow, but with a heart of gold
A distinctly British film, with a British theme, of one young boy’s obsession with supporting a none-league football team in the 60’s. Based on a novel by Dave Roberts it shows how the author obsessed about possibly the worst football team in English none-league history, Bromley FC. While young David Roberts means well, he often gets into trouble with his antics, usually getting him into trouble with his dad played by Alan Davies, while he mum, played by Martine McCuthcheon) secretly encourages him like most mums would do behind his dads back. He tried everything to not only support his team but try where possible to be involved or even improve the team he cares so dearly about. This is a charming film which relies on a simple yet effective story, acted out lovingly and convincingly. There are times where the antics seem to be signposted and potentially cringe worthy, but all the time they are harmless and fun. On occasion the film seems to slow down a little rather than keeping a frantic pace, but this doesn’t detract. Ultimately this is nice and easy feel-good film that can be enjoyed with the family and doesn’t take too much effort to follow it successfully. The film in many ways is like supporting a none league minnow like Bromley FC, it may not be everyone’s cup of tea, it may not be like the glitz and glamour of Premier League teams – but it’s a fun ride and it’s enjoyable all the same. 7 out of 10.Read More
