Glory Road was unappreciated by the critics and by the crowds 15 years ago, but we think they were out to lunch. This is one of the best pure sports movies we've ever covered.
Director James Gartner and his team do a good job getting the facts right about this true story and they certainly captured the emotions of how these young men dealt with brutal racism in the '60s. The NCAA basketball action is just terrific and the actors/athletes are naturals, especially Derek Luke. Josh Lucas is fine as the coach, but Luke dominates as his feisty point guard. So whether or not the 2021 March Madness goes off without any hitches, fire up our chat about a well-executed true underdog story.
And how about some Twitter time? Sure. We are @moviefiend51 and @scoringatmovies
