It doesn't get any better than this

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2002)

Nominated for Best Picture, and deservedly so, Hoosiers is movie-making at its best. Maybe not for the wine and cheese crowd, but just about everyone else. Within the classic, all-American story-line of the underdog overcoming incredible odds to achieve greatness through hard work and sacrifice, Hoosiers gives the audience a unique inside look at the game of basketball as well as a glimpse of small-town life in the early '50's. Beautifully written and scored by the same team that brought us "Rudy", well cast and acted from top to bottom featuring, perhaps, Dennis Hopper's finest performance, I feel Hoosiers will continue to delight and inspire for long time to come. In other words, it's a classic......Don't miss it!!!
