Mean Machine Movie Synopsis
When soccer star Danny Meehan (Jones) lands himself in jail for fixing an important match, the warden tries to force the rough rough-and-tumble athlete to train his guards semi-professional soccer team. Knowing the help will only make enemies among his cellmates for the next three years, he agrees to train the prisoners instead and make them a practice team for the guards.
yes a good entertaining movie.I am not a soccer fan but liked it all the same.Note-This is a direct copy of the american film..."the mean machine.Also known as "The longest yard" which stared Burt Reynolds as a grid iron player who ended up in the slammer.A carbon copy in fact.They must have bought the rights to the script!
one of the best films i have ever watched
funny film however, alot more to be desired.
