Austin Chronicle

It's worth seeing the action scenes on the big screen, and to get in the mood for the World Cup opener later this month.

FULL REVIEW

L.A. Weekly

Demonstrating yet again that he knows few limits as an actor, Duvall not only nails the accent, he inhabits the man's flinty, grudge-bearing contrariness with such a furious commitment that it brings out the best in the actors around him.

By F. X. Feeney FULL REVIEW

Miami Herald

Registers as a more scenic "Hoosiers" with rowdier fans.

FULL REVIEW

New Times (L.A.)

Solidly entertaining little film.

By Andy Klein FULL REVIEW

Variety

Mediocre, dramatically flat picture.

By Derek Elley FULL REVIEW

Charlotte Observer

For all the satisfying details in the script, the big picture remains hopelessly and intentionally trite.

By Lawrence Toppman FULL REVIEW

Los Angeles Times

Not as distinctive or even as humorous as its needs to be to stand out, but it has clearly been made with affection and care.
