Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Carter gives every sports-drama cliche a chance to play. No bad idea is benched.

fresh:
Saved by bursts of energy and inventiveness.

rotten:
Although this is an inspirational genre pic that pushes all the requisite buttons throughout, you cana(TM)t help but feel that rather than benching the team, director Thomas Carter should have benched a few of those ham-fisted sporting clichA (C)s instead.

Samuel L. Jackson shouts, yells, bellows, and screams his way through the fact-inspired film

rotten:
This is supposed to be about setting high standards, yet it's full of fudged ultimatums; in the end I couldn't be sure whether its morality was complex or just confused.
