This movie was really good. I especially liked the fact that there was so much team effort and spirit in the movie. That gives people a good idea as to how one should play on a team with people they don't know very well. It was pretty funny too!
This is a really great story about a towns teen sport jock who gets involuntarily teamed up with local bowling square pegs.
A long running tradition between two rival towns is about to be retired and it is up to this odd bunch to take home the prize. With no time to spare Todd McLemore, town jock and son of the mayor, must learn how to bowl. But he has a thing or two to teach the group of overly confident teen bowlers.
Alex Thompson, leader of the brat, learns that change can be a good thing. Between Todd and Alex they come up with an idea to save the unpopular bowling alley. A great story of team building and friendship. Definitely a must see!

Teenagers, aces at bowling, but discredited at school, compete for the regional "Big Apple" trophy. The final will be decided by a high school champion in almost every sport, but who knows nothing about bowling. He will have to resolve differences and enlist the help of the "bowling gang" to win the game. Misfit teens are thrust into the spotlight when their bowling prowess lands them in the middle of an interscholastic competition. A group of hip retro teenage outsiders become involved in an interschool bowling rivalry.
Interesting, initially I thought I would be more attached because it was one of those children's and teen movies, more of the same, in the "Afternoon Session" Disney style, however it fell into commonplace, with some very cute messages, but without much attachment, almost boring ...

The movie the Alley Cats Strike, is a made for t.v. movie on the Disney channel. Now, some of you may be saying why is a 16 yr old girl watching things on the Disney channel. Besides the reason that I'm a kid at heart I honestly think they have good entertainment for the young and old. This movie starts off about these retro teens and there love for bowling, and leads into having them plus the "golden child" of there town defending the "Mighty Apple" trophy from there arch rivals. It's such a cute movie and a great cast, I really loved it and I recommend this to anyone that loves good movies!
While in the early 2000s and late 90s there were many great bowling movies such as The Big Lebowski and kingpin Alley cat strike takes the Cake it's probably one of the best movies ever made about bowling I give it 10 out of 10 bowling pins down a strike.
