Great movie and perfectly describes high school football

Rating: 10/10 (13 February 2007)

Friday Night Lights gives a great look at what high school football is truly like. The pressure of the school and the community, the thrills of a close win or heartbreak of a close loss, and the fact that for a few months out of the year, a bunch of teenagers truly mean something to a lot of people. A great movie for anyone whose ever played football, been a fan of football, or a fan of sports in general, and it does capture what people who play football in high school go through each fall. From the parties, girls, and family issues off the field to the big plays, big hits, and big disappointments on the field, Friday Night Lights is high school football.
