Forget the Titans Aug 04, 2008
I knew this movie was in trouble right from the opening scenes. Ham-handed direction, stereotypical characters, trite dialog and predictable storyline. Honestly, I was thinking to myself, "Jeez, all it needs is for 'Spirit in the Sky' to start playing". Sure enough...

I kept on watching, though, hoping it would get better.

It didn't.

Plain but has an important message. Jul 17, 2008
Remember the Titans starring Denzel Washington I believe is a Disney film so expect a sappy ending but this movie is worth watching. The story deals with racial harmony, I like the message but you feel the producers wanted this film to be as sugary sweet as possible. Washington always gives a solid performance, he's reason enough to give this football film a viewing, enjoy!

Great Movie Jun 13, 2008
This is a great movie. Even if you don't like sports, it is a good story. Delivery was fast. Completely satisfied.

Misleading garbage... May 19, 2008
Intentionally false portrayal of race relations and Civil Rights in Virginia circa 1970.

I attended high school in Virginia 1963-1964 and the schools were already successfully integrated statewide without incident and without any ongoing conflict. The events the story is based on actually took place in 1962-1963.

I contacted the producers of this movie to question why they knowingly altered history and their response was that people would not feel "connected" to the story if it took place before the 1970s - that it needed to look more familiar. The result is a phony story and a false portrayal of the South unsuccessfully lagging six years behind the actual Civil Rights act.

Complete garbage.

worth it May 13, 2008
I just watched this movie and midway through it I had to stop and do some research. I basically groaned when I noticed that Disney did the film because I do NOT trust disney to ever stick to the facts when presenting anything "based on a true story". I was shocked by what I found.
They didnt stick to all the facts. No suprise. But what DID suprise me was how many they actually did stick with. Sure they took artistic license but at least I didnt have to chuck it as a total work of fiction...and more importantly I think they caught the "spirit" of the story pretty damn well. Unity is possible. Not easy. But possible. And it can produce dramatically good results.

Of course I would have loved the movie anyway since Denzel was in it, lol. Hes always good.

Its a must see movie and although it does get a bit corny here and there overall its a winner. After you watch it go check out the true story behind it. Good stuff.
