Fair-haired Ecki, the baker's son, has grown up the golden boy of his home town. All that changes the instant he and his soccer teammates discover he's gay. Now the object of scorn and ridicule (and finding himself unceremoniously kicked off his team), Ecki travels to the city of Dortmund to recruit an all-gay soccer team to return and prove to his town and his former soccer mates who the best men are. As first-time-out Ecki searches blindly through gay watering holes for players, his parents endure a rash of derisive gay jokes from the townies, leaving Ecki's gruff father to hope for a change in his son's orientation while also considering closing down the family business.
Leave your thoughts about Guys & Balls.
| Metro Weekly (Washington, DC)Randy ShulmanThis jubilant, exhilarating film works like a wonder tonic. It's as captivating as they come, by its very definition a big, fat, fantastic crowd pleaser. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyA by-the-numbers ensemble dramedy that hits every underdog and gay-fish-out-of-water cliche on the nose. |
| San Francisco ChronicleG. Allen JohnsonIt's surefire entertainment: loopy and predictable, but tremendously likable. |
| european-films.netBoyd van HoeijThe sexuality of the protagonists is just another plot twist in this mildly funny sports comedy that never seems to accept its characters as people rather than cliches. |
| Filmcritic.comDon Willmotta by-the-book redemption-through-sports story with a few laughs, a few clichés, and those few annoying stereotypes that could have easily been omitted |
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThe climactic game provides an opportunity for some of the most sustained - and literal - gay bashing in movie history, even if the outcome is no more surprising than that of any other underdog comedy. |
| User ReviewChris CSome day, the Americans will learn to portray sex with such grace and humor as the Europeans. This movie goes down very easy with its upbeat blend of uncheesy humor and genuine humanity to the moments of drama and truth. |
| User ReviewChristian CFunny film with a heart, gets all the gay stereotypes in there but the mix works. It's a football version of the Full Monty, with a gay love story. One of my all time favorite films |
| User ReviewCamille SQuite nice story Typical revenge coming out story Raw acting but nice red line |
| User ReviewE FYou don't have to have an interest in European Football (soccer) to like this film. It is all about finding your own way of living, and it is heartwarming to follow this young man Ecki through the perils of finding just that. |
