Interesting only for football fans
21 November 2002
This was not a particularly good film, but as a football fan I found it had something to offer. I'm also a fan of older movies and often find myself in the position of defending these to the younger people who think they're silly. I'm afraid I was actually the one laughing here at some unintentionally humorous moments. Sorry Mr. O'Brien, but I don't really think the acting was all that good with most performances as wooden as I've seen. In fact, this being the first film I've seen with Ronald Reagan I was pretty impressed as I thought he was the best here although not really great. This was mostly just an interesting documentary style movie with tidbits of info that I wasn't aware of and as a look into the way things were over 60 years ago. The standout was the great football footage- what a blast! As a result, if you're not into the game you'd probably either fall asleep 15 minutes in or just laugh yourself silly.
