Summary: | High school football coach Bob Ladouceur coached the De La Salle High School football team for a record-setting 151-game winning streak, but when the team loses for the first time in twelve years, he and his team are tested The remarkable journey of legendary football coach Bob Ladouceur, who took the De La Salle High School Spartans from obscurity to a 151-game winning streak that shattered all records for any American sport "A true tale of high school football achievement becomes a strained, by-the-numbers grab bag of uplift in the Christian sports drama, When the Game Stands Tall"--Los Angeles Times "More in the tone of the big screen 'Friday Night Lights' than 'Rudy' or 'The Blind Side,' it succeeds as mainstream entertainment without relying on a conventional storybook framework."--San Francisco Chronicle "When the Game Stands Tall' is nearly as good as the average episode of TV's 'Friday Nights Lights,' which makes it better than most movies and one of the better sports films of recent years."--New York Post |
