Maybe it has something my version didn't.
While I didn't hate it, the visuals were only mildly impressive (they seemed to use sloppy cgi a lot of the time.) The plotting was choppy (we got to see team Evil precisely ONE time before the 'heroes' got to go fight them. Plus, why did the gangster team immediately gain superpowers when they decided to join with the Shaolin team?) and the motivations were rarely explained (Why should we care which team wins? By the end, I didn’t think that the Shaolin team deserved any kind of victory. They barely had to train to become soccer masters, they reveled in their riches, and they all seemed extremely arrogant.)
On top of that, the worldbuilding seemed weak. (Three of the four teams we got to see compete in the final tournament had superpowers, yet the other team seemed dumbfounded to see people play like that. As a matter of fact, the Shaolin team was stupefied both times they met a team with people who had superpowers.) I think the movie’s propensity toward ridiculous, over-acted comedy overshadowed some of the cool cinematography tricks and took valuable time that could have been spent in characterization and plotting.
A fun watch, but all around I was left thinking about the mistakes more than I did the successes. By the end, I felt like I did while I was watching the Scorpion King.
