Really good watch, could watch again, and can recommend. There are some outdated references, but mostly the movie holds up over time. All the key points are the same, it's mostly playing football between haves and have nots, with a strong female empowerment element. It's great to see a fun bunch of "misfit" kids working together to overcome adversity. I miss Rick Moranis in the industry, and he's fantastic. They did such great character work on each of the kids and the movie is filled with charming moments. If you liked "Benchwarmers" or "The Sandlot" and wanted a football version of this sort of movie, check out this one.
