Ok. I'm going to say Goal! The Dream begins - it is rightfully PG-13 so check if you are ok with content - no nudity but there is a scene or 2 of "wild party" frat-house-ish behavior although it is ultimately frowned upon by the film - the eventual message is kind of 'be good. play good. make your dad proud.' A very cliche movie but would probably appeal to a 10 year boy.

The link broke, so select "movies" to the left for a list of movies.

Do you mean "about" boys? Because I don't think "Bend it Like Beckham" had a specific audience in mind.
That said there was a great movie a few years back about Tibetan kids who became huge fans of the World Cup. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0201840/

My 10-year-old son loves Bend it Like Beckham.
Also, Kicking and Screaming with Will Ferrell. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0384642/
There really should be more movies about soccer.
And, show him this...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jU4oA3kkAWU
