I just saw this movie in the theater today, and it was fantastic! The script was really good and they did a great job of making it as close to what really happened as possible. Dennis Quaid was great once again and I really liked the way they handled the character development in his character (going from strict, stern, my way or the highway to realizing the error of his ways and accepting his son's plans), and the final scene with him reconciling with his son was very moving. John Smoltz playing a broadcaster during the finale was an unexpected and interesting touch. Also big props to Colin Ford doing a great job playing Rickey Hill and I also loved Randy Houser's character and the song he wrote for the movie. 8 out of 10 and I loved it!
