A waste of 90 minutes of my life

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

England crash out of the World Cup on penalties, one of the players dies, and there's even some fetish vampires and midgets, for the kids.They should have stayed with just the first 2 and Kuno Becker should have stayed with no hair, he looks hideous loll.Still a good movie for soccer fans, more story in this one than soccer action.I loved the first two but this one ugh this I HATED!The movie is supposed to be about Santiago Munez (Kuno Becker) and what happened after the second one but this is just crap! I couldn't even finish watching it thats how bad it was.misses the charm of the first 2 episodes... To much green screen and a less interesting lead character makes Goal III a disappointing end of this soccer-trilogy

I haven't seen the film but I've read the plot and it looks awful. There's no way I'll buy Goal 3 on DVD.As a Newcastle fan, the first film was my favorite, the second one wasn't quite as good (I'm being biased however) but it was brilliant. However, after reading the plot for the third movie, it looks really bad. The film producers have completely changed everything and instead of taking part in football's biggest ever competition, Santiago sits out through injury. There's also no Gavin (who retired even though it was revealed in Goal 2 he became 29, which is too young to retire in my opinion), Roz (Goal 2 revealed she became pregnant) or Glen (who got sacked by Santi in Goal 2). The two main characters in the film are two English footballers (one of them sadly dies during the film) who no'one had ever heard of, also a bald man is used for Sven-Goran Eriksson (who appeared at a party in Goal). If I was to make it, I'd have group draws that would mean the possibility of Mexico playing Brazil in the final (but try to make it as similar as possible so they can continue to use real matches) as well as England beating Germany in the third place play- off after losing to Brazil in the semi-finals. In the final, I'd have Santi scoring a hat-trick to help Mexico come from 2-0 down to beat Brazil 3-2 and him becoming player of the tournament with Gavin doing similar to what Paolo Rossi did in the 1982 World Cup (apart from the fact he helped Italy win it) and struggle in the group games before scoring tons of goals in the knock-out stages to become joint top scorer with Santi (who'd win the golden boot with more assists). Before the tournament after the squads are picked, I'd have Santi visiting Roz in Newcastle for a few days before meeting up with the Mexican squad whilst Santi says "RIP Dad" after his winner in the final.

why would they say "to be continued" at the end of Goal 2 if they weren't going to continue it? This movie is absolutely terrible, if they were going to change things so much they should have just made a spin-off movie, which in reality they did. However, this had an introduction of plenty of new characters whose story lines were boring at best. Santiago Munez is barely even in the movie, and he's the series title character. I absolutely loved the first two and I could not wait for this one. What a a complete and utter disappointment! I wish I had never sought this film out to watch and I just left it at the cliffhanger that was Goal II's ending...

Avoid at all costs. The only connection to the previous stories are Santi being in this one for about... uhm, 5 minutes! Who exactly thought this would be a good idea??? Didn't Kuno Becker object to his character (Santi) being sidelined? The producers have tried to pull a fast one. He's featured on the cover but he's just a cameo appearance as the main crux of the story centres on 2 new characters that are supposed to be Real Madrid teammates of his, yet we've never encountered them before. Where's Roz? And Gavin Harris? And one of the main things that peeves me the *beep* off was the atrocious match footage featuring the worst digital effects since Ray Harryhausen's monster flicks of the 1950s. Couldn't they even find a proper soccer pitch and try using some actual extras for crowd scenes? Instead they have to uses real games and digitally insert the "alleged" actors into the footage. I've seen TV adverts with better quality.This is NOT a fitting end to the story of Santiago Munez.
