British Comedy Guide, 28th February 2020United We Fall Home Entertainment Review
United We Fall has come out of nowhere to be an underrated British comedy gem.

It's not the hair-dryer treatment, it's "the hair-straightener treatment". This new film by director Gary Sinyor takes a look at the beautiful game in all its wacky glory.
