McFarland

Rating: Null/10 (17 May 2015)

Kevin Costner is basically the king of sports films and when he stars in a Disney sport film it is a match made in heaven. McFarland is a relatively unknown true story about a California cross-country running team. Race is a common theme of the film much like other Disney sports films like Million Dollar Arm and Remember the Titans. Disney tends to follow a similar format for their sports movies and McFarland USA is no exception but Costner is so lovable in the league and it is hard not to become a sucker for that underdog story. Although it will likely not be the best film you ever see, McFarland USA will certainly but a smile on your face.
