Well I saw this movie yesterday for the first time and I didn't expect a masterpiece. I wanted to be entertained, nothing more. After sixty minutes I stopped it, because I couldn't stand that bad story. The characters are clichés: The violent and gambling father, the vicious chief in the brewery and poor Jimmy who fights against that circumstances and his own failures. At one point he loses everything: The Woman he loves, his brother and the chance to get part of Sheffield United. But then he turns for 180 degrees, fights hard for his second chance and in the most important game he got in after 45 min beats Manchester United nearly alone. I spend all my admiration for Sean Bean, Emily Lloyd and Pete Postlethwaite. They fight with their acting against this poor script, but they lose against it. It's a pity, because this could have been a really good movie, but therefor you need a more inspiring directing and a better script. You can see in "Billy Elliot" how you can tell a good story with this topic. So "When Saturday Comes" is just a mediocre try to make a good movie.

If you like football as much a me and you always dreamed of making it but never did, Then this is how i would of hoped it had happened, This movie covers everything you want in a rags to riches football movie the movie is a joy to watch. The performance by Shaun Bean was great (as usual) and Pete Postlewaite puts in a great performance again, the story just flows nicely and easy to watch. Its a movie i watched again and again when i was a kid and have it on DVD. Even now i watch it and something inside me wants to get on to a football pitch and get spotted just like Jimmy does here. To Jimmy life was just a game... Until the game became his life! 10/10

I saw this film primarily because I am a supporter of Sheffield United. To fully enjoy it however, you need to suspend belief and overlook some of the inaccuracies that it contains. The depiction of Sheffield for example, appears to be more appropriate to the seventies than the nineties and some of the dialogue & accents were "out of date". However, these were small reservations and overall I enjoyed the film - mainly from the perspective Sheffield United fan. Come on you Blades!!!

The BOREST (could i say so? or MOST BORING?) film i've ever seen (ok, maybe the second one: "Family Man" with Nicholas Cage is a little more awful). God knows i love football, but this film disproved women are possible to reason on sports. I've tried to watch it fearlessly, but couldn't help it: it's a pale green bore with pathetic attempts to show the "inner life of British working class heroes", "the class struggle" and all that. Soap opera meets Angry Young Men cinematography and goes to the area of a sugary drama. Dead dialogs. Puppet-like actors. Seems like "directoresse" didn't even made them play something. She'd better focus on some TV-series like, sort of, "Grace Under Fire" or something. How the idea to make a FOOTBALL movie only came to the head of this respectable woman?? Do excuse my not-so-perfect English, guys. :-)

Excellent film, I loved it. Great football action and cool scenes. I like the way Sean Bean has to fight hard to get ahead. The football action is very realistic. The mining scene was powerful. If you like a good * scene, this film is for you. The acting was great, Bean and Postlethwaite are at their best and the director really captures the gritty feel of Northern England.

If my opening sentence isn't clear enough, I must reiterate that this is without doubt one of the worst films I have ever seen. SEAN BEAN a trainee? He is clearly older than Gar McAllister. SEAN BEAN having casual sex with a *? Sean always appears to have spent the day down a coal mine being sprayed with acid. The man was in Sharpe people, I'll accept no half measures.
