Charles P. @reptaddict Jan 23 The best sports movie ever, and nothing else is close. See more Michael F @Moviemaven58 Dec 9 Hoosiers is definitely in the top five sports movies of all time. Right there with The Natural and Field of Dreams. I’ve seen it half a dozen times at least and never get tired of it. Perfectly edited, filmed and staged. A definite must see even if you’re not a basketball fan. Just to see Gene Hackman again is priceless. See more Stephen C @bob25009 Jul 8 1 hour and 54 minutes based on a true story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated PG for Brief Language Throughout and Sequences of Sports Violence!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The USA grossed over $25,800,000.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more Rob A Mar 27 Here's an oldie but goodie for you! A David vs. Goliath story about a tiny Indiana high school basketball team, led by a former college coach with a checkered past (Gene Hackman RIP) and their unlikely run at the state championship back in the 1950's. Barbara Hershey and Dennis Hopper co-star as a skeptical Principal and alcoholic father/assistant coach repectively. The film is a classic; well written and directed. Every few years I watch it again. Hoosiers having been released in 1986 (I was in high school myself) I've probably seen it 5 times by now. See more Gregory D Mar 24 This movie came out a few years after I was born. My older brother and father were already a fan by the time I saw it. I grew up playing basketball and the story of a small town team making it to the state finals appealed to me as I grew up in a small town. The players conviction and unbelievable performance by Hackman, captivate me every time I watch it. The music is incredible. The basketball scenes are awesome. I cry at various points during this flick as it gets me emotional. Ollie making those 2 free throws to win the game remind me of 2 free throws I made, coming right off the bench. Team, team, team. No one more important than the other. I love that. Living in Massachusetts, Boston Celtics is all about team. You must watch this movie. The greatest basketball movie ever made. See more Los G Mar 11 UTTERLY run-of-the-mill fare here, despite the great cast. Coach with a dodgy past takes over a down and out team, gets kickback from players and families, slowly wins them over etc etc Maybe it's an American thing to be so obsessed with basketball, but if someone told me this had been devised by AI I wouldn't have been surprised See more Read all reviews
