Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Exactly what you might expect, right down to the montage of blindfolded tussling, jogging and high-fives to the tune of unrelenting inspirational music.
It may not live up to that grandiose title, but this rousingly sweet little flick is certainly nothing to go out of your way to avoid.
A by-the-numbers sports drama with a death grip on cliches and acting every bit as flat as the mat...
Patricia Clarkson's charismatic warmth elevates an awkward inspirational sports drama.
