When the Game Stands Tall

An extremely weak film when the most important thing is said at the beginning. You can also find something about it on Wikipedia, as well as about the coach. The film tries to play on emotions, but it's so incredibly shallow that it hardly seems worth positively evaluating. Laura Dern basically doesn't act here, and Jim Caviezel puts on his usual suffering expression. Movies about boxing and baseball are usually great, but obviously not ones about American football.
