Editorial Reviews

The star player of Icelands top soccer team causes controversy when he admits to being gay to his team mates and then goes on a journey to discover himself (with the help of the local press). He soon finds himself ostracized by his team and decides to call it quits to join a small amateur league made up of gay men trying to play football in a straight, macho world of sports.

Save yourself - Don't Watch this

Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2021

I could not get past the first 1/2 hour. First of all the filming itself is awful; even worse than amateur. There is no scenery to speak of, and the little action (football) is so badly filmed you can't try to enjoy it. Then the subtitles go by so fast you cannot follow any of the conversations, but no worry; the people are so mundane and ridiculously ignorant you aren't missing anything.. One man says the gay man cannot be on the team because he will turn all the others gay. I heard of Homophobia but please don't try to convince me anyone thinks it is contagious! The plot is thin at best, and the script is awful because it makes EVERYONE in the film act like they have a 3rd grade education at best. I had to stop watchin, it was really hurting my brain and my eyes.

This is an identical plot to the German movie Guys and Balls but their like stops there. As one is fun, energetic, spontaneous, and likable, the other is not. They are both made by the same production company.

Eleven Men Out is a very depressing, serious, and awkward movie where the acting is barely passable. And I did not like that the main character's son gets caught in the middle of his father coming out and his mother being a slut and a drunk.

This is an Icelandic movie. Basically the plot is based on a famous local football player playing for the first and most popular team in Iceland. He announces in the beginning of the movie that he is gay just to get a story and a picture in the local magazine. Then he joins a third rate all gay team.

The rest of the movie is the tribulations of him adjusting to his new life and team. His father is a psychiatrist and a member of the board of his former team. At first his former team chastises him but toward the end this team tries to get him back. There is a game at the end of the movie between the gay team and this straight team. The gay team fails miserably (unlike Guys and Balls.) Also there is a father and son portrayed in Guys and Balls, healthy relationship, unlike this movie.

I liked the movie for his cultural information, otherwise I disliked the movie for everything else.

Iceland?

I never thought there'd come a day when there was something I didn't like about Iceland, but this movie is it. Writing a plot that revolves around Iceland as a homophobic country, even 12 years ago (not exactly the Dark Ages), is ludicrous. Maybe a writer wanted to use it as a device to make the movie more interesting-or something-but nothing could've saved this movie.

This film is like watching a news report, All the facts are there . But you are watching as an outsider, looking in . You have no connection with the actors, nor do you care to. Not a keeper

Bad to worse

"A hilarious comedy?" "A crowd pleaser?" That's what it says on the box. Ah, no. Was it Rocky? Kramer VS Kramer? Funny? NO! Another tired attempt at a 'gay' movie. Forget romance. There's none. Oh, except, 'Blow me," uttered by the star during one scene. After his gay boyfriend does, our 'gay' soccer star, who came out in the first scene just to be on the cover of a magazine? Err okay, why? He, for no reason...sleeps with his --beastly-- alchy trophy wife. Gag. Has a son who seems more gay than he does, and is certainly old enough to get a clue, mopes around more than a cartoon parody of something from South Park. A film filled with cliche' parents, soccer coaches, teammates and more homophobia than is believable in a 2005 release. And it even had an ending that was not worth the agony of the 84 excruciating minutes of 2 dimensional characters. Not one character was explored in depth. Not even the beauty of the leading man could hold me for this one. Why can't anyone make a decent gay movie about love, pride, romance and leave out the pathetic done again and again sappy BS? Another waste of good income. Skip it!

Linda's Thoughts on "Eleven Men Out"

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2014

Verified Purchase

A little disappointed in this film. I purchase few films "sight unseen", but I did this one as I have enjoyed many foreign Gay films. The idea was good, and certainly current in nature. A favored sports figure comes "OUT", and the affect of this on various aspects of his life. However, the film didn't flow well, seemed disjointed. Maybe could have spent less time on playing the game and more time on other things.

Bland, humorless and predictable.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 2, 2011

Verified Purchase

Here I must agree with "Son of Nietzche" and his review of Eleven Men Out, in that the movie is bland, humorless and painfully predictable. In fact at times the humor relies exclusively on jaded stereotypes of gay men and women, which rather than delight actually offend. The characters are one dimensional with no real substance and motivation, making for a disappointing cast. Even the lead character, who outs himself rather unexpectedly in an interview with a journalist (as an announcement to his team mates), fails to convince. A successful footballer, who has a teenage son, reveals to the world he is actually gay, and then proceeds to thumb his nose at everyone despite being ejected from his club and team. He lacks emotional depth, interacts with his son, wife and team mates in manner one expects from a civil servant (professional but removed) and seems horribly inconsistent at times.

The injustice of his ejection from his club, despite being its star player, occurs with ease and with no real objection. Despite his alleged independence and strength, he accepts this travesty with no real consequence or desire for justice. Instead he moves to another club which has two gay members, only to have the team evolve into an exclusively gay team as new members join. Whilst this seems fanciful, it could have been used to introduce a host of exciting characters and nuances. Alas it fails even there.

Horrible disappointing, and beyond a recommendation.
