I am so glad Dave Christiano came out with another movie. I watched this movie on DVD today with my wife and we both Loved it. Remember The Goal is a movie that you can bring the whole family to, regardless of their age and not worry about something being said that is inappropriate. I love the lessons about: 1. How God values you as a person; 2. How drugs are bad for you; 3. How to remain humble; 4. The importance of obeying your parents vs your friends; and 5. Not giving into peer pressure. 1 Cor. 10:31 (NLT) Whatever you eat or drink or whatever you do, you must do all for the glory of God. Thanks again Dave for creating another great movie, you are continuing to hit Home Runs!!! If anyone is looking for similar movies to purchase, go to Christianfilms.com.
Dave Christiano has made an enjoyable, heartfelt and inspiring film that speaks to teens, parents, coaches, and even those who may just work with young people. It's also not afraid to go beyond just being entertaining, and addresses issues confronting teens in this day and age, and provides lessons that can be learned from, but it does that in a way that is seamless, not a "smacked over-the-head" presentation. The story and cast are quite enjoyable, as is the cinematography and soundtrack. I write a faith-based film column and I can honestly say this will easily be one of my favorite films. Once you've seen this, do yourself a favor and go find one of the many other fine films from Dave and Rich Christiano.
I have seen this movie twice now and could watch it every weekend and never get tired of it. The first time I watched it, I was so into remembering my own Cross Country days (and track and Army and Collegiate and all those runs that you pay to enter after schooling). Every team and runner should watch this! This time I got all the little messages that the coach was instilling in the girls. They work whether you are a teen or a full grown adult at any age. I still run to this day. CC Forever! I am so excited that there is another movie like this. I can't wait to watch the next one. Thank you for writing this film. 10:31
For a sport's fan give this movie a 7/10 for trusting your coach. As a Christian, add a star for trusting God. The movie is very clean. I would not hesitate to let an eight year old watch this movie. The PG rating is nonsense. The reference to drug use (weed) is positive in context.
This is a good movie - but not for the reasons you might think looking at other reviews. Let's be honest - the God Squad viewership will give anything 10/10 if it fits their narrative, even if the film is a pile of poo.
This is a good movie because the premise of a coach who appears to be underqualified and inexperienced turning out to have a great unexpected strength is a winning one. If the directors had played this up, it could have been a great movie and not just a good one.
The religious lessons are shoehorned in with cringeworthy clumsiness resulting in the utmost hilarity. However, there is a certain charm about the desire to impart inspirational messages, and it does not stop the film from being an enjoyable watch.
