AMAZING!!!This movie is Christian based! It's a FANTASTIC movie for Christian families! 5 star... I don't like football but this is AMAZING!! (Not about football).Score: 5/5

Great movie.Wasn't expecting what I just watched which made it even better. I've been wondering why this movie got snubbed in theaters and it's because it is heavenly focused on faith and believing in Christ. Terrific movie and wow that it is based on a true story!.Score: 5/5

Great story on many levelsI never write reviews but Loved this movie. This movie has so much to offer and is a great sports family friendly movie. Interesting part is iTunes did not feature this as a new release the week of Martin Luther King day, especially since this is a message the Dr King would embrace. Hope that changes..Score: 5/5

Very Well Done!I saw an interview with Touchdown Tony Nathan who said that this movie is very accurate to the account of what happened at Woodlawn. It’s easy for someone to sit back and think this was created to promote a certain message. It’s rather the other way around - the message was there, and the Erwin Brothers wanted to tell it. Mainly because it involved their father (who is portrayed by Sean Astin). And Jon Voigt was amazing as Bear Bryant. It’s an awesome movie and I highly recommend it..Score: 5/5

GoooooodWatch it, great movie!!.Score: 5/5

Not the worst christian movie out thereParts of the movie were actually interesting and well acted. the christian shtick seemd to actually fit until they had to make up a bad guy in the form of some government school officail who came in and tried to stop the religious things going on....in the deep south. If you buy that I have ocean front property in arizona to sell you. but other than that, the movie wasnt to bad..Score: 3/5

Very inspirational movieI agree with others on wondering why iTunes is not listing this as a new movie or even featuring it on MLK day. They should Great family movie!.Score: 5/5

Η αφοσίωση τους για ενότητα έρχεται σε αντίθεση με ένα σχολείο όπου κυριαρχεί ο ρατσισμός και το μίσος, κι ενώ φτάνει το μεγαλύτερο παιχνίδι στην ιστορία της πόλης του Μπέρμιχαμ, της Αλαμπάμα. Ανάμεσα στους παίκτες, δε, ξεχωρίζει για πρώτη φορά ένας αφροαμερικανός, ο Τόνι Νέιθαν...

Deutsch
1973 in Amerika: Tony Nathan, ein afroamerikanischer Football-Spieler, wird in das Woodlawn High-School-Team von Birmingham, Alabama aufgenommen. Mit der Integration mehrerer afroamerikanischer Schüler setzt der Trainer Tandy Gerelds ein Zeichen gegen den vorherrschenden Rassismus und Hass, der nicht nur in der Schule, sondern im ganzen Land verbreitet ist und sich in Aufständen und Unruhen entlädt. Dabei bildet das Football-Team der Schule einen Mikrokosmos, der die vorherrschenden Probleme im Kleinen aufzeigt. Denn auch hier stehen Intoleranz und Unverständnis an der Tagesordnung. Als der Außenseiter Hank, der sich intensiv mit dem christlichen Glauben auseinandergesetzt hat, von Trainer Gerelds die Erlaubnis erhält, vor der Mannschaft zu sprechen, gelingt es ihm, die Botschaft von Akzeptanz und Nächstenliebe weiterzugeben und seine Team-Kollegen zum Umdenken zu bewegen.

המאמן טנדי ג'רלדס אובד עצות לגבי קבוצת הפוטבול של התיכון אותה הוא מאמן. השנים הם שנות השבעים באלבמה, והמתח בין לבנים לשחורים במוסד הלימודי מבעבע ומונע מהקבוצה הכושלת להתגבש ולהגיע להישגים. כומר מקומי מחליט לעזור ומציע לחברי הקבוצה מרכיב חשוב שהיה חסר להם – אמונה, שבאופן מעורר השראה מאפשר לקבוצה להתחיל לממש את הפוטנציאל שלה.

Il team è allenato da Tandy Geralds, un uomo chiamato a tenere a bada i problemi dei giovani, che riflettono quelli dell'intera cittadina.
