    New film starring Gerard Butler as a former Celtic player living in America and offered a job my ESPN and that. Looks a bit cheesy and maybe a bit of a chick flick, still really cool the exposure Celtic will get. And Jessica Biel is in it.

    Said it in the previous thread about this, Gerard Butler is * and his films are *. Seems a nice enough guy but dreadful actor who chooses to continue to make dreadful films.

    Does the movie actually mention Celtic?

    I know he used some old footage of ours but people not aware of Celtic would have no idea who or what that was, therefore no exposure.

    hopefully we get a few mentions.

    I think hes a good actor in more serious rolls, in law abiding citizen he was immense and 300 was his best, the rest of his films seem to be romcoms which are always going to suck.

    He scores from a cross of a player wearing an Ntl era top in the new Celtic Park and when he gets the ball he's in a CRSmith top in old CP.

    They're not exactly serious roles. Law Abiding Citizen is one of the worst films I've ever seen and he's terrible in it. The accent is horrific. The plot is disgraceful. The "protagonist" of the film who you're supposed to sympathise with, kills a bunch of innocent people! 300 is one of these films I've never understood why people enjoy it unless it's the same way as people enjoy Nicolas Cage's terrible films because they're terrible.

    His accent borders on * irritating at times.

    Although, loved 300, Law Abiding Citizen, and Machine Gun Preacher was a good film.
