5.0 out of 5 stars Wildly effective, even if a little cliched
A movie I almost wish I loved less.

It's hard to argue with a lot of the complaints I've heard from others; the film is very Hollywood, with manipulative music, some clunky dialogue, heavy doses of sentimentality, etc

But, as a true story, it earns its happy ending. The story really was almost this dramatic in real life. And the bottom line is it is...

2.0 out of 5 stars Underachieving film about overachievers
This film starts out promisingly with some beautiful photography showing Indiana in the fall. It soon bogs down to repetitious basketball footage and cliche characters going about their wretched lives pointlessly. If you like shots of basketballs bouncing off of backboards, this film might be entertaining. To me, it was like being hit in the face continually with a...

1.0 out of 5 stars Mon Dieu!, April 7 2003

This review is from: Hoosiers (VHS Tape)
This must be the worst, most pathetic film I have seen. I bought this movie because I like Gene Hackman. The movie is boring and slow moving. I have never been to Indiana, and now I am sure I NEVER wish to go there. The movie is full of drab, dull, lifeless and bleak scenes. The acting is okay, and the music is good. What is so exciting about a school winning a state championship? This happens all the time. Why do they make a movie of this? I highly suggest NOT purchasing this movie. This movie is a total waste of time and money. I would have rated it with zero stars, but it would not let me do that.
