Leave your thoughts about Jack to a King: The Swansea Story.
| Birmingham Mail Graham YoungA story that money doesn't buy everything in football, that heart and conviction can still count for a lot on both sides of the touchline. |
| Independent (UK)Geoffrey MacnabThis is a real-life sporting fairy-tale that suggests success can still sometimes be achieved in British football without the largesse of absentee foreign owners. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawIt's a watchable film of localised interest: the DVD will be a piece of club merchandise, but a competently made one. |
| Time OutDave CalhounFor diehard Swansea FC fans, this doc detailing the club's rise from near-bankruptcy to the Premier League will have them crying and punching the air with nostalgia. |
| User ReviewJeremy HFantastic film about a fantastic family football club. |
| User ReviewNicola WAn absolutely biased rating here but I did love this docufilm. Gave me goosebumps throughout as I remembered the events. The greatest football story ever (possibly) and that day in Wembley I will never forget. Jack Army! STID :) |
| User ReviewRichard ISplendidly made documentary not afraid to give the villains a fair hearing but ultimately happy to share the joy of the heroes. |
| User ReviewJames OQuite a boring documentary, lacking in drama. One for fans of the club only. For anyone else its just another story of a team who have saw bad days turn good. Happens a surprising amount of times. Pretty amazed this got public release, should have just been local showings. |
