For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Absolutely Fantastic

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

How this movie is reviewed so lowly and how it hasn't been remade yet starring Jennifer Hudson. Get on it.

I love Goldie Hawn and have liked many of the movies she's been in...This one though; Brutal! Not on her part, mind you...Just the whole premise...Funny to see a young Wesley Snipes and Woody playing high school kids...But not funny haha...The 80's was one of the worst decades since the early 20th century WW1 and Spanish flu etc...I found myself wincing with the blatant PC garbage...You can see the start of it all back then...Cliché upon cliché, dialog written by one of those annoying kids from pick an 80's movie...I was hoping this stood the test of time, I didn't see it in the 80's when it came out. It sounded stupid then, when I was in my mid 20's and I feel vindicated in my early judgment...If you loved the 80's, you'll love this movie. I despised the 80's so, perhaps I'm just taking it out on this movie...Nah; it was horrible!

Molly McGrath (Goldie Hawn) is a divorced mother of two girls and a Chicago high school girls' track coach. Verna (Swoosie Kurtz) is her sister best friend. Molly knows more about football than her male colleagues due to her late famed coach father. She wants to be the JV football coach but head coach Dan Darwell (Bruce McGill) picks the clueless home-ed teacher instead. He offers her the varsity coaching job at the rundown inner-city Central High. Levander 'Bird' Williams (Mykelti Williamson) is the local hustler and Ben Edwards is the principal. First, she has to win over the players.Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson play two of the players. It's a standard white savior movie with a bit of fun and a healthy side of sexism. It's a bit funny but not too much. It's nothing great. Goldie Hawn is solid. There isn't anything special but it's good enough.

Pretty silly Goldie Hawn comedy from 1986 about a team of rough hooligans on a football team who get a new coach: Goldie Hawn. Lots of innuendo and guys making sexual references about Hawn soon dissipate as they realize she's actually pretty good.I saw it on Dinner and a Movie. Nothing very memorable; save your money.2/5 stars.
