A story with all the proper beats lives here, even if the film rambles and tampers off into ridiculousness when it has no reason to. But even with its flaws and redundant humor fatigue, Next Goal Wins stands out as Taika Waititi’s most coherent film since Hunt for the Wilderpeople. Full review: https://bit.ly/dontpassgoal
