Gridiron Gang movie comments

Date: 2007-02-10 20:36:51 User: Martin The movie does a good job of showing a man with a passion to help troubled kids. It is a bit sappy from time to time and The Rock (though he sure looks the part) is a few yards shy of scoring with the film's emotional demands. But its inspirational story, accompanied by a soaring musical score, is relatively cheer-worthy." But Hoose objects to the "gritty realism" of its "unnecessary gang violence and foulmouthed kids."

The beginning was very violent, depressing, and scary- to the point where my friend and I considered leaving. It got better, though, and the violent beginning actually did a good job of setting up the story of the rival gangs. It was very well-acted, especially by The Rock. I was surprised because this is the first movie I've seen him in that I actually enjoyed. There was a good balance between the football aspect of the movie and the story itself. It wasn't just a "football movie"- it was about how playing on the football team was able to change the kids' lives. The ending was really good.   You have to register to leave a comment...   Back to the Gridiron Gang movie download page
