American Underdog

In these times of doom and misery you just need a film like this to give you a shot in the arm!

Inspirational and very moving story.

Just one great story and film.

Had me jumping out of my seat for joy!

Loved it...

No disrespect but still screw the Rams.

It's not the most unique plot of all, but it sure was a feel-good underdog story. I had a great time watching the story of Kurt Warner. It's great that the real people actually involved a lot in the production, because I felt the relationship between Warner and his family first charming, and then endearing. Another warm aspect was the amount of support that the side characters had for our main quarterback. I just can't help but feel inspired.

Overall, it's another underdog story, but man it's a good one. 8.5/10.

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.

Okay, this isn't the best movie technically I've ever seen, but it's a good story that needed to be told and I enjoyed it.

The moral conclusions will be obvious once you watch the movie, so I'll just skip over those. And unless you're a diehard cynic, you should.

Yes, it's sentimental, but it's not maudlin (much) and the story is largely factual. If it bothers you, you've got issues. How someone could rate this four stars, I have no idea. The acting is not mediocre, it's quite good. Dead on for the lead characters if you've ever seen the real folk interviewed live.

The overall flow of the movie is reasonable sprightly, though a tad clunky in places.

A good, fun, watch that doesn't go overboard with the emotion... Okay, maybe just a tad, but mainly the movie lets the story speak for itself.

Get the tissues - American Underdog will make even the most stone face man let go... Best sports themed feel-good movie I've EVER seen (and I see a LOT of movies)! Second only to CODA this year in the feel good category at large, which might very well be the best of all time. It was a memorable year for feeling good watching movies 👏.

Better than anticipated, and glad I bought American Underdog (only way to see it right now other than in Theaters). Worth it!

My "Favorite Film of 2021" [EDIT: Replaced later by 'CODA' which I saw after this film]

Anyone who reads my reviews knows I don't give out 9s or 10s easily. Like Kurt Warner, this film defies the "usual" and earns my 9 without reservation.
