Carlitos and the Chance of a Lifetime is a movie about an orphaned boy who loves to play soccer. Carlitos is a very determined boy and wants to be a professional soccer player when he's older. Carlitos has a lot of friends and they are all very cute. He decides to run away and join a soccer club. I don't want to give the story away, so I won't say anything more about the story. Carlitos and the Chance of a Lifetime is in Spanish but has English subtitles. It was heart-warming and people of all ages will enjoy it. The story was very cute, but it was a typical fairy tale; there was a bad guy, a good guy, and a love story.

Once you start watching Carlitos and the Chance of a Lifetime, you realize that the story is really predictable and you know what's going to happen next. The movie was made very well. The setting was amazing. It was set at an orphanage that looked like an old fortress. There was a forest that they went into and that was just beautiful. The message was that if you have a goal you shouldn't let anyone stop you. They portrayed the message very well. If you want to laugh and have fun you should go see Carlitos and the Chance of a Lifetime.

Rating 4/5.
