The story of a simple man with a simple dream of playing in the biggest stage an athlete may desire. A story that teaches us that it is OK to dream and not let go of hope. I enjoyed this movie a lot.

A timely movie about keeping hope alive during hard times. Football was just the frosting on top - action sequences were some of the best I've seen and made me feel like I was right there.

I am also pretty critical about films, and this is one of the very rare times I couldn't find much to nitpick. A great time for the whole family. We should support more films like this.… Expand

It's sad so many critics put they own nonsense politics over doing their job - reviewing movies. Sorry religion upsets you, get over it.

More family-oriented movies are needed. Films like this should be supported. Football is just a game. Life is what matters, and this is more a movie about life than it is football.

Really enjoyed this movie! Twice as good as I thought it would be. It wasn't non-stop football - story was also about the times in between football opportunities (namely his relationship with Brenda). I wiped tears away more than once.

It wasn't non-stop football - story was also about the times in between football opportunities (namely his relationship with Brenda). I wiped tears away more than once. Also a few good humorous moments enjoyed theater-wide. Overall quality life-inspiring film. Main actor and actress and all coaches did a great job. Highly recommend.… Expand

Put your politics aside. This is a particularly good movie that was inspiring and made you feel good after watching it. I wish there were more movies like this. I have much more respect for the Warners and their family. Kurt and BrendaPut your politics aside. This is a particularly good movie that was inspiring and made you feel good after watching it.

Critics on here are once again, useless. My name is ____ , I insert my ideologies into everything. I'm incapable of reviewing from a neutral stand point. Did that woman just say God? The nerve!
