Can this poster look any more like a Walt Disney film? It's reminiscent of every hackneyed sports melodrama to have a poster drawn up for it.
With Sean Astin starring as a coach trying to turn a school's final season into a reason to keep the school open, there are bound to be some comparisons to his previous sports encounter Rudy. Even if the films are nothing alike, people are quite likely to bring up that film.
Another feel good, inspirational, based-on-a-true-story sports film that'll be overlooked by the Academy.
I have not seen this film.
