Just had a look at this flick and it gets a thumbs up. Then again I do seem to like the football films (Remember the Titans, On Any Sunday). Good performance by Sandra Bullock and worthy of her Golden Globe and Academy nomination. Worthy of its Best Picture nomination.

Anyone else seen it or intend to?
 
I was forced into seeing it. It's not bad but the box office and awards nominations are unbelievable. Sandra Bullock is pretty decent in it, but it's not an Academy award winning performance, which it will be in 2 weeks or so.

Just a point that if you were forced into seeing it, you probably weren't in the right frame of mind.

I didn't read any reviews prior and went in with an open mind and did enjoy it but I can see it wouldn't be eveyones cup of tea. A work colleague said he won't be seeing it because he doesn't go see "sports movies".

No I'm not a snob, I just wouldn't have gone to the cinema to see it if not for my girlfriend. I have been forced into seeing many movies I ended up loving, just not this one.
 
Saw it today.

Completely disagree on it, or Bullocks Award worthiness.

Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a bad movie. But it was so saccarine sweet at times it was cringeworthy. A good, nice story, great for the family and the women folk. (old women and children dominated the audience at my screening, with a splattering of guys like me accomanying the missus)

Probably would only rate it 6/10. But it just did not suit my taste in movies, others will no doubt have differing views, but I shoulda gone to Daybreakers instead.
