Very well done!

Rating: 9/10 (3 January 2007)

Being a big Chad Pennington fan, I have heard that he went to Marshall. So I went to this movie out of curiosity, and not expecting that much. Was I ever surprised. This has to be one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. McG really surprised me since I did not like any of his previous works. I went in without any preconceived notions, and came out a very delighted movie goer. If you like great story movies, then there is no doubt you have to see this one. If you don't, well, your loss. The character development was outstanding as I obtained a great sense of what each was going through, especially the new coach coming in with no connection to the tragedy, and the surviving coach who returned which had deep connections to everything that happened with the tragedy. The contrast between the two and seeing them come together is just wonderfully portrayed. All I can say is "Wow"! (Oh, and watch closely during the closing credits and you'll see Chad)
