I accidentally caught this at the theater this weekend and thought, huh, I have no interest in this film. BUT if anyone who liked football was watching it, he or she would most likely enjoy it. There were a few moments that were enjoyable, as far as characters, theme or rags to riches, but I can't say that I would watch it again.
Football fans and Mark Wahlberg fans, give it a whirl. Non-football fans, save your bucks for something else.
