Another '66 nostalgia trip..

This is basically just another World Cup 66 trip. If it really took us back to his early life, through his early career and through to the World Cup, and his personal life. Then it might be worth a watch.

As it is though, there are a lot (and I mean a lot) of talking heads and images of the talking heads playing football. Doesn't add anything.

Barely touches on his early life and family. His dad playing for Oldham or the move down to Essex from Manchester.

It's basically the same story we've heard a thousand times. No real insight into the man and his life. Probably not worth watching unless you know nothing about the 66 win.

Would like to have seen more of his Career.

The title now is of course wrong after 2022's final but that's nitpicking.

The film is mostly centered around the 1966 final - A subject that's been used so many times but Geoff Hurst's career was so much more there is very little footage of any other match that he played in.

There is also a lot of talking heads who honestly add little and wouldn't be missed.

When the story focus on the man it is at it's best like his daughter's passing or having to sign on even then the old school British 'We don't talk about things' is on display. He seems a man of few words.

If your interested in Football you'll enjoy it but don't expect a deep dig into the man & his career.
