Leave your thoughts about The Damned United.
| San Francisco ChroniclePeter HartlaubIt stands out as one of the best films of the genre, on the strength of the storytelling and wonderful performances. |
| Philadelphia InquirerSteven ReaA pitch-perfect portrait of a man full of inspiration and ambition - and full of himself. |
| Screen InternationalFionnuala HalliganOffering just enough football to satisfy the fans in the stands, The Damned United is also a pleasingly high-quality British drama with some terrific performances. |
| The New York TimesA.O. ScottThe rare sports movie that deals with -- indeed positively relishes -- humiliation and disappointment. |
| The Film YapNick RogersMichael Sheen has played vampires and werewolves, but works up his most insatiable bloodlust as Brian Clough in this sharply observed, superbly acted drama that realizes sports forms as nasty a symbiotic relationship with a nation's people as politics. |
| Washington PostDesson ThomsonIt's more than a detailed account of one man's petty vindictiveness in a bygone era. It's about how our hatred can consume us so deeply that we lose sight of everything. |
| Chicago ReaderJ. R. Jones[Michael Sheen] adds to his gallery of public figures (Tony Blair, David Frost) with a sharp performance here as the legendary UK soccer coach Brian Clough. |
| Shadows on the WallRich ClineA colourful script, gorgeously cinematic direction and blistering central performance by Sheen make this one of the most entertaining biopics in recent memory. And it's definitely not just for football fans. |
| thelondonpaperStuart McGurkIt romps along with an effortless bounce and charm. How much will stay with you, though, is another matter. |
| MovieFreak.comSara Michelle FettersSheen and Spall hit the pitch running at full steam, their multifaceted and constantly evolving relationship the film's gripping heart and soul. |
