A great Good Feeling movies to watch with the kids me and my son loved it
I like movies based on real people so I was looking forward to this one. While it had potential, it never really lived up to it. Somehow it never grabbed you like other movies of this type. Look to movies like "Rudy", "Invincible", "Remember the Titans". "We Are Marshall". "Greater" and others before watching this one. Perhaps the writers and directors should have watched them too.
Has a low budget feel to it with mediocre acting. It's cheesier than I would have liked, and is much more geared towards kids than adults. However, the two stars do a solid enough job to carry it through. Corinne Fox is gorgeous and potentially a future star, although she's not there yet. There are also enough laughs sprinkled throughout to help lighten the mood. Good enough for a one-time viewing, but that's about it.
Several have taken pot shots at Clemson regarding the scholarship issue. Please research the issue before commenting. Actually read something before forming an opinion. Isn't there enough quick reaction/comment in our society now? Ask yourself how you would feel if someone said something about you without all the facts.
This is a nice story, plain and simple regarding a strong young man overcoming obstacles in his life. It is inspirational. This film and Clemson University should not be attacked by social media miscreants. Try reading what this wonderful young man said about it himself. Jeez!

Everyone said things like "it's cheesy" or stuff like that, but this movie has a feel good story and was very inspiring. In my book, a 9 is like a ten. I barely give tens but this movie was incredibly great and I recommend you watch the whole movie before you make a decision on it.

- TriviaFootball game action was filmed during halftime at Clemson Memorial Stadium, also known as Death Valley, during the Clemson Tigers - Charlotte 49ers game, played Saturday 21 September 2019. Fans obliged the producers by remaining in their seats for the gridiron sequences and cheered the "plays" as if they were real.
- GoofsAlthough the producers went to considerable lengths to recreate the 2006 look of the Clemson team, down to shoe styles, and to the coach's polo shirt designs, two things could not be duplicated. The Clemson Tiger Band forms a tunnel formation on the field for the team to run throw at the beginning of the game, but the band's uniforms have changed since that era and the performers were not part of the filming at halftime. The tradition of releasing orange balloons as the team runs down the hill was discontinued in 2018 for environmental reasons and was also not included, even though it would have been seen in 2006.
