What a joke!, 2 April 2002
Author: Aaron from California

I would like to know just how 20th Century Fox (the actual production company), ran out of money toward the end of this shoot. The storyline is good. Of course, it's a true story, so you get what you expect. I enjoyed the characters, especially Nick Turturro, but how in the hell did they not have enough money to shoot the last basketball scene....correctly?!?

If you watch the last basketball scene (ASU v. Washington), about a 1/3 of the crowd is made up of real people....and the rest? Cardboard cut-outs!!! May seem superficial, but I thought it instantly made this a less-than-mediocre "made-for-tv" movie. Pure schlock.
