action

The Wild Beasts have won almost every title they could win since defeating the Beastly Beasts. Only one trophy is still missing: the trophy of the Freestyle Soccer Contest. To win this, they have to compete against the Ragnarök Wolves , who have won the trophy three times in a row.

For the trip to Ragnarök, each of the wild guys is equipped with a motorcycle , for which they each have to give up their most important treasure. When they arrive in Ragnarök, the wild guys are initially greeted with hostility, but are ultimately let into the castle of the wolves to contest the freestyle soccer contest.

First contacts with the wolves take place in the night camp of the wild guys. Erik, the leader of the wolves, warns Leon about the fog and the world behind it and advises him to leave, which Leon ignores. A girl named Burdock also appears who is constantly following Nerv.

The next day the freestyle soccer contest is on. After four different competitions, which are held in a duel between the wild guys and the wolves of Ragnarök, it is a draw. A decision should be brought about by golden goal . On a football pitch littered with traps, there is no decision for a long time until Leon can score the golden goal. The wild guys have won the freestyle soccer contest.

Now Horizon, the leader of the Silver Light, appears. She enchants Leon and Marlon with a demonstration with her magic balls. She promises them to wait for them at the end of the fog. Leon and Marlon decide to follow her. Vanessa, who no longer trusts Leon since her mistake in the contest, cannot stop them. Even a warning from a member of the wolves that they have already experienced a similar incident cannot dissuade them from their plans. The incident had to do with Erik, the leader, and his older brother. They disappeared behind the fog because of Horizon. The next morning they found Erik at the gates of Ragnarok. He was tattooed with "Loser, Traitor" on his chest and his brother Jaromir disappeared. Because of this, and out of fear for the two of them, the rest of the wild guys follow them, except for Maxi, who remains on Ragnarök.

Leon and Marlon roam the plain behind the mist, looking for Horizon. While Marlon is in love with the girl, Leon only wants to defeat her in football as she is the strongest opponent he has ever had. But when he meets the bathing Horizon while looking for firewood, he is enchanted. Horizon says she only wants the best and that Leon must be the best as a leader. She tries to seduce him, but Leon disappears into the forest, not fully aware of his feelings. In the evening the silver lights attack the brothers and challenge them. If they want to face them, they should come to them the next morning, if not, they should leave.

You do as you are told. Before Horizon explains the rules to them, Vanessa and the wild guys show up. Horizon realizes that her own chances are getting worse and worse and tries to separate the guys differently. She talks about her meeting with Leon am See, but does not mention that Leon did not accept her offer. Leon can't deny that he was there, so Marlon thinks he's a traitor and runs away. Vanessa is also now completely convinced of Leon's infidelity. The wild guys find a place to stay for the night and try to come up with a battle plan, but without Marlon, Maxi and Vanessa they seem to be lost.

Maxi is still on Ragnarok because he can't make up his mind to go home. Suddenly his father appears to him. In the course of this encounter, he realizes that he belongs to the wild guys. He follows them into the fog. Maxi's return is welcomed with joy, especially since he can also convince Vanessa to forgive Leon.

At the start of the game, the wild guys have to discover that Marlon has sided with the silver lights. During the game, Leon tries desperately to convince his brother not to be a traitor, but Marlon does not believe a word he says. Then Leon admits that Horizon was wrong and not Leon, but Marlon is the best of the wild guys and they only lose because he is not with them. Marlon wonders because Leon has never admitted that someone is better than him, but he finally realizes that Leon is serious. He returns to the wild guys and ultimately scores the decisive goal.

While the wild guys are celebrating their victory, Horizon appears and asks Marlon for a private chat. Horizon tells him that he is the one she has always been waiting for, because he is the only one who has decided against revenge and in favor of love - which no one has achieved before him. In doing so, he defeated Horizon. Burdock and Nerv watch how they kiss.

The wild guys get ready to continue, but Marlon doesn't come back. Leon thinks his brother left him for Horizon. Only at the last moment do the two appear and join the wild guys.

criticism

“Continuation of the popular children's and youth film series that draws attention away from football and towards first love. The poorly imagined, clumsy staged and staged film conveys strange educational ideas about sporting competitions; In addition, the young actors run the risk of freezing in the poses of inedible ' thugs '. "

"The mixture of football spirit and a thirst for adventure, the dense and exciting story, the surreal and mystical sets, the perfect pictures and a professional soundtrack make the film a real cinema experience for the whole family."

"Despite serious violations of dramaturgy , the kids will love this pathetic- crude mix of ' Mad Max ', ' The Tribe ' and ' We children from Bullerbü '."
