Console best movie i've ever seen.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

sfp20 I didn't care for the movie. It seemed like a lifetime movie or something.What kept going through my mind is if the coach actually cared about his team, he wouldn't have had issues with him players going elsewhere. If you had students that had potential, you're holding them back by having them play in a broken city where they won't get visibility.As for the team building exercises and stuff like that, that was good. I could see focusing on basketball helping build a team and doing so could be a distraction that relieves some of the pressures of being in a destroyed city.

nicholls_les I guess you have to remember this film says 'based' on true events not a fully true life story. Although I loved the bit at the end with the real team and coach. I thought the film was very good and extremely entertaining. All the cast were spot on and the basketball looked very realistic. I don't particularly like Forest Whitaker as an actor but in this film he did a fine job. But it was really all the supporting cast that carried this film and despite the content and setting there was very little bad language and no sex scenes so this makes it one of those rare films that the whole family can watch. I bought this on DVD only because it was cheap but I am very glad that I did.

oliveoyl-1 This is a wonderful movie. Too bad that it was not managed properly. The story needed to be told and will be one of the greats as far as I am concerned. The acting is superb, it brings the devastation of Katrina into each American home like no news reports could. It is an injustice to consider this movie just another "out of the ashes" "feel good" story. During the time of Katrina I could not help but wonder why we Americans had allowed the Patriot Act and Homeland Security to start taking over our lives, when mother nature is a much more formidable force than any terrorist acts. This movie made me think about how great people are when they have the resolve to do the extraordinary because of rather than despite insurmountable odds.

raulito-j Hurricane Season was like a exciting thrill ride just waiting to get on. I feel this way because it showed me how all the struggles that New Orleans citizens went through but still made the best of it. This movie had also showed me how your team is your family,and how teamwork is important no matter what. I also noticed some characters like Lil' Wanye,Bow Wow,and China Anne McClain. I think they played their parts well. I couldn't picture anyone better for the parts.This movie also fits for kids my age and up, and parents as well. That's why I think this movie was interesting.But my favorite character was Brian Randof played by Robbie Jones. I liked him because he reminds me of me because before no one wanted me on their team or gave me the ball. The reason why was I never passed the ball until I opened my eyes and saw that when I needed help I had four other players just like what happened to Brian.Another actor I liked was Shad Moss, but you also know him as Bow Wow. I liked him because he showed people that size doesn't matter. Like you could be big and be the worst or you can be small and be the best on the court.That's what the movie showed me.
