The NOT SO "Glory Road", cliché racism in sports story despite Lucas's performance

Rating: 6/10 (4 June 2006)

**1/2 Josh Lucas, Gary Grubbs, Wes Brown, James Aaron, Mitch Eakins. Directed by James Gartner. After "Remember the Titans" came out everyone including Jerry Bruckhemier, wants to make a sports movie dealing with racism amongst the team. And it gets tiring after the first few acts of recruiting teams and then bitter rivalry on and off the court, so it can't go anywhere that these movies haven't gone before. But with one saving grace Josh Lucas who play Coach Don Haskins. Who teaches the team the skills of basketball that is when they aren't doing the same old routine of fighting and arguing with the coach's rules of practice. Despite a few comical scenes and neat basketball shots, Swoosh! "Glory Road" does the same thing only with a different sport.
