Saipan (out Feb 5) transports us back to the 2002 FIFA World Cup and is a dramatized interpretation of a stoush in the Irish football team between captain Roy Keane and coach Mick McCarthy. This feels way too simplistic with the supporting folk come across as caricatures. I’d have preferred a documentary approach where we hear from the actual people involved. Grade: C+.
