Wonderful movie

Rating: 9/10 (2 July 2006)

If you love sports movies, this is another one to definitely see. I recently saw the Bobby Jones movie but was still really intrigued by this one - but any true story is intriguing especially when it involves an underdog.
My hubby and I just saw Superman Returns but found this more enjoyable - maybe we're getting old or maybe we just enjoy a simple story with no sex, violence or vulgarity in it or maybe it's a bit of both lol! I find Shia L. to be a fantastic actor!!! I loved him in "Holes" and was equally impressed with him as Francis Ouimet. And I think Bill Paxton did a wonderful job for his first time directing!
