Notes et avis

Good story, creative approach, the 'based on a true story' has some appeal for those of us looking beyond simple escapist content. I found myself really pulling for Kurt/Zach and Brenda/Anna when things looked pretty dark for them. The reveal of Zack was pretty emotional too. Great locations for this production away from the glare of L.A.

Powerful, this is just solid. A very inspirational story that will make you tear up....a story that is so rare and unique in football. Perfectly performed by great actors. Highly recommend this for the sport fans.

Missed seeing this in the theater, but as a St. Louisan - and having witnessed the extraordinary career of Kurt Warner - I knew I would buy the movie regardless to how good it turned out to be. It didn't disappoint. I read some criticisms that the movie didn't focus so much on the on-field performances. Those of us who lived through it saw how remarkable the man and the team were. It was more interesting for me to see the behind-the-scenes drama unfold. I give it five stars.
