Good concept, poorly executed.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Blistering performances.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This show is not the best-made show. The editing could be better and there could have been a better selection of which teams and people to focus on. What I do appreciate about the show is how real it is. It shows both the positive and negative parts of youth football. I have coached youth football and I know the stresses that come with that kind of responsibility. One of my favorite lines in the show was given by Keith Dyson of the Judson Jr. Rockets when he said that youth sports will always be ruined by adults and another person in the show, a woman said more of the same as well. "It'd be nice if youth sports was just about youth and sports." The kids are the ones playing, but the world that the adults create can be problematic. It's great to see teams like the San Antonio Outlaws and the 210 Outlaws that play quality football led by great athletes and more importantly some great coaching by Fred Davis and company. But then, you have teams like the Texas Storm led by Paul and Lori Hurt who try to downplay the aggressive teams who can actually play and accuse them of foul play. That is a perfect example of adults ruining the game. Instead of these so called "adults" being competitive and putting together a quality program, they make excuses for being a garbage team. They blame the referees, their opponents, and even the entire organization instead of admitting that they are afraid of the teams who are actually successful. Lori Hurt is a perfect example of what happens when you put a woman on the football field to coach. Pure weakness. Also, if you think youth football is child abuse, you clearly do not have enough knowledge of the game to give an objective opinion. Yes, injuries happen and yes there are terrible coaches. But, that does not take away from the fact that there are some great organizations with coaches who can teach young boys how to become great young athletes and great young men. Football is just a tool that coaches can use to teach young boys about good work ethic, about passion, about respect, and about being a part of something bigger than yourself. Claiming that youth football is child abuse is completely ridiculous and unrealistic. There are millions of kids who play football and kids love the game and they love to play. It's a great game and it's a privilege to be a part of it.

FIRST OFF THIS IS NOT CHILD ABUSE. Everyone who thinks it is then your kid is probably one of those kids who cry every minute of the day because things didn't go their way. They are preparing these kids for REAL LIFE and what it's like in the big leagues of football. You think middle and high school, college and NFL coaches don't talk to their players this way? Stop acting like these kids are glass and will break every time someone says something somebody doesn't like. IT'S CALLED LIFE!Second off this show is just great all around. It shows sportmanship, hard work ethic, and some damn good football! I wish I lived in Texas just so I could watch it in real time.

I give it a 5 merely for camera work. How this type of abuse to children isn't illegal is beyond me. I get much of it is inflated for production value but if these people think they are doing these kids any favors, they are sorely mistaken. Competition, dedication and sportsmanship can be taught without the abuse those show seems to enjoy.

I have never bothered to write a review before but this is so shocking I had to say something. This is nothing but child abuse. These children are too young for this kind of treatment. Given what is known about the dangers of concussions and how even more serious it is children, and they are playing tackle football at the age of 8, this league should be outlawed. I wish a professional NFL player who is suffering from the effects of concussions would do something to help protect these kids from ignorant and abusive parents and coaches. Children should not be pushed in 99 degree heat; should not be screamed at by adults who think they are making the kids stronger; that playing "football" at the age of 8 will teach them not to quit in life; these attitudes are so backwards. All these children will gain from this is potential devastating injuries and an attitude of confusion. If you want children to learn to not quit in school, then teach then not to quit in school. You can't teach a child "not to quit in life" because they don't understand that concept at the age of 8. Again, where is CPS????
