Average Joe

Great story! Why do people hate just because they don't agree with you? The rating scale of 1's vs 10's is quite telling. Each time I see such an extremely difference of opinions, I'm curious. Seems odd, right? Are there ratings feelings or true movie reviews??

The movie was NOT a one star. I've seen plenty of one star movies- this isn't it. Good acting and Good story.

I seriously wish the reviews did not need to be so lengthy. We read them and get what we need without 1,000,000 words

All true stories turned into movies have some fluff. If you or anyone you care about was in the military this movie makes sense. It's worth the 90 mins for sure. Haters gonna hate.

It's interesting to note that there are usually critics of movies that don't make sense.

Did they truly consider the plot and context of the story that was presented?

Joe Kennedy is interviewed in the beginning and shares with the audience about some aspects of his life.

It is not always funny and can be painful to see what took place.

It seems that there is significant reason not to change it to fit someone's opinion that may not deal with facts.

I appreciate Mr. Kennedy and his family allowing their story to be told and the legal aspects explained for religious expression in our country. It was difficult for them, and he made the effort to be a fighter because of God influencing him. That is what he said and I believe him.

There are some lighthearted moments. I enjoyed seeing the backstory behind the headlines that I was familiar with.

The football coaching was character training for the team. They supported his example, but he didn't force his prayer on them.

I would hesitate to consider a review that protests so much as if the movie goer can't make his own decision.

This is a low budget, faith based film that goes through a true story of a coach that stood up for the right to pray after football games as he was going to fired for that practice. This movie is not very well acted. It definitely feels like a cheap movie. This is one of those flicks that you are either interested in the subject matter at hand or you will not like it. There is nothing else there. Also if you are an old person you may get a few chuckles but if you are any one else the humor will fall flat That's all I have to say so here's a bunch of random words to meet the required charactes to post.

I am not religious but I am religious about free speech. I am shocked that people are so confident that god does not exist that they would give such terrible reviews that are not fair or accurate. False witnesses beware.

I have learnt my lesson about critics. I almost did not watch this GEM due to hateful and inaccurate reviews. I would never want to mislead somebody and have them miss out on an experience like this.

Maybe Im biased because I just love a true story and I have been invested in human rights battles myself.

All in all a great watch. Had me captivated in the first 5 and kept me the whole way.

Anyone giving less than 5 stars has some personal issue and does not reflect the quality of this movie.

I say I am noyt religious and I am not, however I have seen some miracles and I believe in God more than I believe you hateful critics.

I have never made a review before, but when I saw how low this scored, I felt... compelled by some greater force to chime in.

As a grown man, this movie made my eyes water several times, and laugh quite a bit. The comedy is dad joke tier, but in the best way. It addresses family dynamics many raised by boomers will identify with. The ending was very satisfying and informative.

It isn't a big budget Hollywood movie, and in this day and age, that's exactly what is needed. The acting was solid and the storytelling was unique. The main characters break the 3rd wall a lot, which I understand, may be frowned upon by the "fine arts" snobs. This makes the movie very light hearted though, especially in parts with heavy subject matter.

Great movie to watch with the family on a relaxing Sunday!
