Football movie in the "Guilty Secret" category

Rating: 7/10 (13 November 2007)

The football season approaches and I searched around for football movies that "make a difference."
But I can honestly say for me The Replacements with Keanu Reeves and Gene Hackman occupies a special status in the football-movie heavens. I've watched it many times and have been thoroughly amused even inspired on each occasion. So what's the appeal? Probably that it's more escapist fun with a lot of very cool music, clever humor, and wicked choreography than you find in more realistic portrayals.
