Rudy (1993)
From Amazon:
This 1993 film by David Anspaugh (Hoosiers) is slowly building a reputation as a minor highlight of '90s movies. Based on a true story, Rudy stars Sean Astin as Rudy Ruettiger, a blue-collar kid whose father (Ned Beatty) worships Notre Dame football but who would never dare to dream that any of his sons could be a part of the team. The film is entirely about Ruettiger's ceaseless if sometimes wavering commitment toward that goal, despite tremendous obstacles in physical stature, education requirements, the dismissiveness of coaches, poverty, his father's envy, and endless delays of one kind or another. This is the sort of film...

Rudy Movie Review by AJ  (8/10/2006) |

Okay, if you've seen Rocky or any number of other inspirational underdog sports flicks, there's nothing about Rudy that's going to come as a surprise to you. In fact, it follows the playbook almost exactly (though there are a few neat little twists here and there). This is not a great movie and in fact in the wrong hands...

Of course Jodie does not like this movie...cause she's a GIRL!!!
Although I know chics who really dig this movie. Anyway, this is a superinspirational movie and is based on a REAL story.
Yes, its from a particular predictable genre of films, but it is the BEST of all of them.
I think its a definite film one should have in...

I don't like Rudy, it is a movie that I turn off as soon as it comes on, it ranks with Napoleon Dynamite in my books. It seems to be long and drawn out and just not something that I can relate to or that I feel good about after watching. I don't understand those who like this movie. Sorry Rudy fans...

"The next time someone tells you dreams don't come true, tell them about Rudy." A predictable yet always enjoy film about one man's dream to play football for Notre Dame. Though it's not entirely a sports movie, it's about anyone whose ever had a dream and had somebody tell them it couldn't be done. A film about cheering...
