unlabelledView post →I like watching Next Goal Wins and being reminded of Taika telling us the kid who played Armani just kept showing up on set, and nobody knew who he was. So they just gave him a part in the movie at that point.
unlabelledView post →NEXT GOAL WINS: Can’t think of the last time an actor has been as miscast as Michael Fassbender is here, but it hardly matters when the whole thing’s so sloppy and arch it plays like a parody of an underdog sports movie as much as it does the actual underdog sports movie it’s trying to be
unlabelledView post →Out Now: Issue 72 concludes with a Spotlight on Taika Waititi. @defoxauthor.bsky.social and @alanbaylesauthor.bsky.social talk us through his films, with a closer look at JoJo Rabbit and Next Goal Wins. 📽️ #filmsky #moviesky www.podbean.com/ea/pb-hgush-...
unlabelledView post →I spoke to Taika Waititi about NEXT GOAL WINS. I went out of my way not to mention his Star Wars movie, but then he brought it up, which is interesting. And he knows he keeps “trolling” Star Wars fans by accident when he talks about it bit.ly/3G1mT0w
unlabelledView post →Coming Soon: Issue 72 concludes on May 16th with a Spotlight on Taika Waititi, including a cost look at his true life sports film Next Goal Wins. 📽️ #filmsky #moviesky
unlabelledView post →#NowSeated for THANKSGIVING Why? Because they cancelled NEXT GOAL WINS at the same time Filmsky 📽️
unlabelledView post →"Next Goal Wins": I laughed, I got a bit misty eyed, I laughed some more. Critics are going to hate this movie because it's light on substance and heavy on whimsy, but it's fun and will put a smile on your face. If you've got Marvel movie fatigue (like me) check it out over the long weekend.
unlabelledView post →It's a credit to Taika's talent and dedication that Next Goal Wins was such a great film.
unlabelledView post →Already couldn’t stand this man but this sure clinches it—from an article about Taiki Waititi’s upcoming film “Next Goal Wins” 🥴
unlabelledView post →Films seen on the plane back to Costa Rica Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die: A not-entirely successful stab at making an A24 film thst loses the run of itself but fun nonetheless. Next Goal Wins: Waititi spinning his wheels in a charming but weightless bit of fluff. 1/2

unlabelledView post →Film: Next Goal Wins (2023) [PG-13] Studio: Searchlight Pictures Character: American Samoan Woman #1 Actor: Lori Pelenise Tuisano Director: Taika Waititi Screenwriters: Taika Waititi & Iain Morris Timestamp: 1:13:57 cinematicfbombs.com/2024/02/25/2...
unlabelledView post →NEW POST: On the documentary Next Goal Wins (which the recent feature film was based on), its depiction of American Samoa's efforts to reach the World Cup, and of broader American Samoan society in a global context. All reposts much appreciated. #filmsky #skystorians 🗃️ #polisky
unlabelledView post →Next Goal Wins (2023) An underdog film with a good ending, unfortunately the rest doesn't hold as strong. It appears to be connected by back to back gags for its humor which for the most part doesn't land well.
unlabelledView post →That's what Taika Waititi's Next Goal Wins movie is based on 😆
unlabelledView post →implement a 100% tariff and ruin a movie Next Goal After The Next Goal Wins
unlabelledView post →It turns out that Taika Waititi had added a trans subplot to his next film Next Goal Wins and it is transphobic af. Like actually wtf is he doing??? It seems done for the sake to have a Green Book like narrative for a cis person to not be hateful. 😬 📽️ CW: transphobia
unlabelledView post →If you’re interested, he made a movie about the American Samoa soccer team. It’s a thing of beauty. “Next Goal Wins.”
unlabelledView post →I say "convenience store" - probably because I'm a proofreader - but I love the version used in Taika Waititi's film #NextGoalWins:
unlabelledView post →Alongside familiar faces like Rhys Darby and Rachel House, I was somehow waiting for you to also pop up in Next Goal Wins ⚽️ (great film, btw!). And indeed you did, albeit only in the credits. May I ask you how you supported the filmmakers, @jemaineclement.bsky.social ?
unlabelledView post →Next Goal Wins was a decent and positive film. I’m not a fan of Taika Waititi but this is the first film of his I found to be enjoyable. Not much else to say. Just a fun soccer film. Good LGBTQ representation as well.
unlabelledView post →@coverville.bsky.social hey, you & @thescottjohnson.com mentioned Next Goal Wins on TMS yesterday - please watch the original documentary of the same name before you watch the movie. The doc is great, much better than the film in my opinion. I think you'll love it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIeK...
unlabelledView post →Giving the Taika Waititi soccer movie a try. Next Goal Wins. So far I am very entertained.
unlabelledView post →Beate's Filmreview im #Microfazit zu #NextGoalWins ist da. Taucht ein in die Welt dieses ungewöhnlichen Fußballabenteuers in Amerikanisch-Samoa von Regisseur #TaikaWaititi . Beate nimmt euch mit auf eine sportliche Reise und erklärt, wo der Film die Erwartungen nicht erfüllt.
unlabelledView post →Next Goal Wins is "The Miracle of Cool Mighty Ducks Runnings with Soccer." Sports movie cliche on top of sports movie cliche weighs down the plot, but the American Samoan cast keeps everything light. It's affable and inoffensive, but not necessarily good. Full Review: 📽️ FilmSky
unlabelledView post →With "Next Goal Wins," you're essentially getting an episode of "Ted Lasso" - but written and directed by Taika Waititi. Check out my full review here: www.fanbolt.com/150334/next-...
unlabelledView post →My review of Next Goal Wins (first viewed at TIFF), a movie where every character sounds like Taika Waititi and the heart and classic underdog triumph narrative are mired by the director's forced humour. www.pajiba.com/film_reviews...
unlabelledView post →NEXT GOAL WINS was Fine, like a very feel good guilt salve movie with that Waititi quirky tweeness
unlabelledView post →I want to see Kore-eda's MONSTER so bad but like in what world did I think that at 9:30 PM with a movie at noon the next day, right after the Next Goal Wins premiere, I would want to sit down for a 122 minute family drama
unlabelledView post →Next Goal Wins, fine documentary, terrible movie.
unlabelledView post →Taika has only made one, divisive at best, movie (Love & Thunder) and one near forgettable movie (Next Goal Wins). But his relationship with quality stuff has been great overall. Dredd will be ok.
unlabelledView post →Anyone one else still wondering why Rhys was icing his balls in that one scene in the 'Next Goal Wins' movie? Just me me?
unlabelledView post →Finally got around to watching Next Goal Wins, which was as taika waititi as a taika waititi movie always is, so enjoyable and very taika waititi.
unlabelledView post →Going to go for a footie movie to start this flight - Next Goal Wins. Looks adorable. Maybe I’ll do a plethora of sports movies instead of a book today 🤷♀️ Could be a Bend it Like Beckham kind of day 😂
unlabelledView post →I accidentally left a wet towel on my bed so I was too uncomfortable to sleep. Tossed on a movie. Should have stayed in a damp state of misery instead. My ★½ review of Next Goal Wins (2023) on @letterboxd: boxd.it/7Squ0p
unlabelledView post →Have you guys seen NEXT GOAL WINS? It is, in most respects, a bog-standard sportsball movie, but there's a lot of heart and humor in the script and performances, and a lovely example of how us cis-het folkes can wrap our heads around trans-ness that I found extremely sweet and kind and refreshing.
unlabelledView post →My ★★★ review of Next Goal Wins on Letterboxd boxd.it/69blgP #FilmSky 📽️
unlabelledView post →Stealing the show in Next Goal Wins: Kaimana. Outcharisma'd every single person in that movie, incl Taika.
unlabelledView post →Next Goal Wins is a wonderful movie! Go see it!!
unlabelledView post →Films brought up as we debated the merits/flaws of “Next Goal Wins” at pizza last night. It’s not quite Underdog, Fish out of Water, or Epic Sports Win but did decent Travelogue Comedy?
unlabelledView post →45th film of the year! I watched NEXT GOAL WINS. It was not very good and I can't recommend it. However, I had a blast at the theater. Taika Waititi's style of humor works really well on me, and I have a particular spot in my heart for soccer films. There are some brilliant moments, but ultimately the film won't work for most viewers. Watch the documentary instead! #NextGoalWins #TaikaWaititi #MichaelFassbender #Movies #Cinema
unlabelledView post →Since the documentary THE NEXT GOAL WINS is back streaming on Amazon and Vudu here is a repost from when it played Tribeca in 2014 and blew me way. You want to see this (and skip the film in theaters) www.unseenfilms.net/2023/11/the-...
unlabelledView post →Kinda done with Taika Waititi’s whole thing. Letterboxd review of NEXT GOAL WINS. 📽️ #filmsky boxd.it/5bvC4V
unlabelledView post →Next Goal Wins ⭐⭐1/2 "Watiti does have vices, and he loves to indulge in them. Sometimes to the detriment of the movie he's making, as he'll take away from a movie's structure, pacing, and substance for a sudden burst of silliness. Next Goal Wins suffers from a lot of that."
unlabelledView post →Well, if nothing else, NEXT GOAL WINS is likely going to be the most triggering film I see in 2023, so I guess I’ve got that out of the way.
unlabelledView post →Film-wise: at 7pm, Next Goal Wins on Film4. At 9pm, The Day Of The Jackal on Legend Xtra, RoboCop 2 on ITV4 or The Mask Of Zorro on Great TV. At 10.30pm, Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody on BBC3. At 10.40pm, Borderlands on BBC1. At 11.05pm, The Substance on BBC3 #telly
unlabelledView post →Good stuff. Incidentally, Taika Waititi’s Next Goal Wins is a sports movie everyone can enjoy. (There’s a documentary, with the same name, that was made first, which I haven’t seen yet, but will!)
unlabelledView post →from The Industry Jail Time Records interview: ~24:35, Taika is reacting to Dione saying they liked his priest character in Next Goal Wins serving as an intro & outro to the whole film. These pics: Taika realizing what she is saying, giving a two-fisted "YES" pump, and then looking dreamy after.
unlabelledView post →7. Next Goal Wins (2023) A film that asks does Mcihael Fassbender have comic chops? The answer is a resounding no. But it's not his fault. Taika Waititi takes what should have been a charming sports underdog story and turns it into a tonal mess. Where have we seen that before?
unlabelledView post →Was previously unfamiliar with TaikaTuesday but if anyone wants to watch his soccer movie, Next Goal Wins, they won’t regret it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Next_Go...
unlabelledView post →I went to a random showing of Next Goal Wins, and the audience was me and a family reunion of like 30 Samoans. That movie was like Avengers Endgame for the family. Every time a new person showed up, someone would shout "that's uncle so and so." Sometimes actors sometimes characters. Raucous delight
unlabelledView post →If it had just been that I’d look past it as a cis man doing cis man shit, but apparently his film NEXT GOAL WINS (2023) has a lot of unexamined transphobia in its handling of a fa’afafine character as well. Tbf I didn’t know that before I went googling for the tweets just now
unlabelledView post →Ah ok. I haven’t seen NEXT GOAL WINS but i watched the documentary and enjoyed it and the movie just tells the exact same story so I don’t see the point of it. I thought that’s what you meant.
unlabelledView post →I'd never intentionally sought out a sports movie in my life until Next Goal Wins. Now it's one of my favorite movies! It makes me cry! A lot!
unlabelledView post →The (movie) Next Goal Wins is available today on (Google Play) for $4.99 Cast: Michael Fassbender, Oscar Kightley, Kaimana, David Fane, Rachel House, Beulah Koale
unlabelledView post →I could not believe how bad his soccer movie from a few years ago. People think his performance in Jojo Rabbit was bad (and it was) but his self insert in Next Goal Wins should have earned him a spot in movie jail for life
unlabelledView post →Next Goal Wins is a typical "redemption" sports movie. The release of this movie happening around the time of the Taika Waititi "hate" campaign on social media, feels like it cause people to dunk on the movie for no reason. (1/2)
unlabelledView post →Next Goal Wins is such a beautiful movie 🥰
unlabelledView post →Next Goal Wins: The movie starts with the most wild score for a soccer game I’ve ever seen. Very silly and full of heart, even if it does feel like it trips over itself in a couple places. Hit the Ted Lasso shaped hole in my heart.
