3.0 out of 5 stars not as bad as advertised, February 10, 2008
By r-dawg "ryan" (portland,me) - See all my reviews
if parodys arent your thing then this movie isnt for you. ive seen scary movie 4 and date movie and this movie to me is better than both of those. its not as funny as scary movie 1 or 2 but it passes the time nicely. and who ever said the plot isnt from any sports movie needs to watch more sports movies before they make comments like that. alot of the movie made fun of varsity blues and a hand full of others. worth a rental but probably not worth buying

3.0 out of 5 stars A parody about Football and sports movies., July 15, 2008
By Micheal Hunt (Hellbourne) - See all my reviews
I always like a good spoof/parody movie, and tho this one is not a Mel Brooks, Monty Python, Zucker's/Abraham or Wayan's brothers movie, compared to some of the crappy parody movies coming out lately like "Epic Movie" this one is refreshing to see someone else take a puck at a parody type movie.

Unlike Epic Movie, I actually got a few good laughs out of this one.

This one makes fun of Gridiron Gang, Longest Yard errr... other football movies, as well as a few other sports. A few guest appearances by athletes such as Dennis Rodman and that guy from the NIKE adds 10 years ago (I'm Australian, I don't follow NHL)

Also Mad TV's Frank Caliendo appears doing his commentator impressions (such as John Madden)

The end of the movie seemed to be taking it self a bit too seriously, it's about the only thing I did not enjoy during the thing. Sure, it could have been funnier, but compared to some of the recent crap coming out in these parody, slapstick comedies, it's better then those.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst parody movie ever!, February 5, 2008
By James Morgan (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This movie sucks. I do not even consider this movie to be funny. The plot was ridiculously pointless and humorless. There were hardly any sports movie reference. This is just a cheap way of taking in movie. Poor effort on anybody's involvement in making this movie.

Spoof movies are becoming too many with few good actors or for that matter good scripts. Some scenes are funny, but the low talent acting hurts the movie.
