If we're going to have to watch awful footy movies on the Matinee, we might as well head straight to the bottom. In our quest to award a wooden spoon, we called enigmatic friend of the show and tableware expert CPL Wooden Spoon to give his recommendation and join us in reviewing the legendary four-legged footy flick, Soccer Dog: The Movie. Turns out, it's actually paw-some.

We're capping off our second season with a review of English road adventure One Night in Istanbul—a film that's a bit middle of that road but still pays loving attention to detail for supporters of the historic Merseyside club.

A war-time love story set against the backdrop of World War II, The Keeper is the story of Bert Trautmann–the former-Nazi turned Manchester City legend who is still revered to this day.

Though this is the second WWII POW Camp movie we've covered on the Matinee (we escaped to Victory back in season one), these films couldn't have been more different from each other and The Keeper exceeded the lofty expectations we had for it.

Funny, frightening and just a little bit disgusting, Goal of the Dead is a French zom-com footy film that impressed us far more than we expected. Uniquely split between two directors, this 2014 horror genre mash-up tells the tale of a Parisian superstar returning to his hometown for a match in the twilight of his carer–But he'll have to contend with hordes of the undead if the local hooligans don't get to him first.

It's another Manchester week as the Matinee reviews United–an excellent depiction of the Busby Babes and the 1958 Munich air disaster that shook a nation and came to define Manchester United. Starring Jack O'Connell as club legend Bobby Charlton, this 2011 BBC film is sure to please anyone looking for a historical look at the club that eventually became a European powerhouse.
