Not just a sports movie

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2006)

Wonderful movie! Probably the best we have seen this year. Matthew McConaughey was just great. The movie was emotionally uplifting and draining at the same time. My wife said she can't remember going to a movie that she cried from beginning to end, yet still loved the movie. We usually never stay for the credits but they are even worth seeing in this movie. They show photos of the original players and coaches next to the actors. VERY WELL DONE movie. Totally enjoyable and not even a swear in the whole thing. I listen to Mike and the Maddog in NY and heard that on the anniversary of the plane crash this year the team had airplane trouble at the very same time that the original team did. Wild!
