Rudy will win your heart.

Rating: 7/10 (30 May 2012)

3.5/5
This movie is for all those people who constantly hear that they are not fit or good enough to do something, that they are inadequate. Rudy is small in stature. So his father and his brothers tell him that he cannot achieve his goal of playing football for the Notre Dame which is what he dreams about all the time. His grades are down the drain, so he cannot apply to that university as a student. The movie is the true story of what he does to prove everyone wrong and seize the day. This is a "underdog takes on the world and wins" movie in the league of the far widely known Rocky. But this is one of the better sports movies out there and if you haven't seen it, you should. And don't miss the blink and miss act by Vince Vaughan and John Favreau (the director of Iron Man 1 and 2) as a desperate-for-girls guy who teaches Rudy. Thank you Gaurav Mehta for another splendid recommendation.
