It is somehow the usual American comedy based on sports and team integration. It is however the remake of a recent Spanish film, which I cannot yet compare. This version has a big drawback: it is way too long for such a film and a plot, it was really heavy to watch.

This was a wonderful uplifting movie. Such breath of fresh air. No political, or cultural references at all. Just a fun, easy going movie with a dose of comedy, but not over baring either. Nice and balanced.

A good and fun movie with a lot of heart. Movies like this have been done better, but it's still worth the watch.

A good feel good inspirational film about a failing professional basketball coach who ends up coaching a rec center disability team after his temper gets the best of him which the law forces him to community service. The plot development, or even more importantly, the character development is what makes this movie great, as the coach bonds with the players and makes him and the audience look at things in a different light. Their fight for the special Olympics on and off the court is as inspiring. Acting was superb.

After one altercation too many on the court, he is ordered by a judge to do some community service coaching a group of young children w More

* This has to be one of the only movies I hate with a passion. I, myself, am not psychically disabled, so I don't feel directly offended by this films pre-snarky, and downright criminal sense of humor. Every second it feels like _Harrelson_ has sex. The first scene starts by implying that the two ch More
