We are all "Marshall."

Rating: 10/10 (17 January 2007)

"We Are Marshall" is a film that makes me proud to be a sports fan. This movie proves that there truly are times that winning is NOT everything. Since I am old enough to have experienced the 70s, I found lots of things "rang true" to the times--the clothes, the music, and the awareness of college students to their needs.
"We Are Marshall" made me feel lucky to be a college sports fan. Those goosebumps I feel at college games will now take on a new, deeper meaning.
The actors were superb and brought their characters to refreshing life. Good things happened without seeming staged, and for once men were allowed to show and experience emotion. What a concept! I've been waiting for a sports movie like this for years.
