The Moviesite Fan Club comments

Ian Douglas: American football continues to baffle me, still looking not much more than a costumed streetfight. The plotline is as predictable as can be, from the results to the love story. Seems to be the kiddie version of "Any Given Sunday", especially considering the mostly tame language. Clinton van Deventer 31: Very good movie. Lindy Rossouw 20: Even though the plot and some of the dialogue of the movie was very predictable, the movie was hilarious! Two of the characters in the movie, the "wiry" Welsh football player and the ex-army football player, really saved this movie with their antics. An absolute must if you don't want a lot of drama, but would like to relax and have a lot of fun watching losers become heroes.
