Preview: The Winning Season (2010)

Synopsis:

Faced with a ragtag girls basketball team, a desperate high school hires a disagreeable coach to whip them into shape.

• Poster: C+

Review:

Inventive, but lacking distinguishable detail. Although you can make out what each image around the ball is, they blend too quickly into the background of the poster, so at a distance it loses much of its impact.

• Trailer: B-

Review:

Amusing enough, this trailer should work sufficiently on the targeted demographic and maybe even a few high school sports comedy fans and a small handful of zany comedy fans. It doesn't look terribly deep and probably won't be filled with more than just stereotypes of the genre, but it might be fun in a don't-think-about-it kind of way.

Oscar Prospects:

None.

Release Date:

• September 3, 2010
