Don't call Them Chicks!

''Bend It Like Beckham'''is quite a nice movie. I mean,it's not a masterpiece like ''BraveHeart'' or ''Schindler's List'', but it's good. The story is simple, about an Indian girl called Jesminder Bhamra who is supposed to be doing 'female things'like helping her mother to cook or thinking about her wedding, but what she really likes is to play soccer. Not to mention that living in London, her soccer idol is David Beckham. Jesminder and Juliette start to be friends since both girls have many things in common. Or should I say way too much in common,when it has to do with the couch? Of course we do have many stereotypes in this movie,like Jesminder's family, but we cannot forget that even in the present days is quite common to have many conservative people and families.

I really liked the ending, and I didn't expect that the couch would really have that big interest for Jesminder, what, in my opinion,makes the movie cooler. ( I don't like prejudices)
