It was 20 years ago that Disney tackled race relations with their ultra-successful Denzel Washington football movie: Remember the Titans.
This flick is stuffed with cliches, but we were easily won over by director Boaz Yakin's likeable cast (many of whom are big players in the biz now) and his pretty faithful adaptation of real-life happenings.
The movie does feel a bit rushed and some scenes should have been given a touch more time to breathe. This, however, is a perfect example of "their hearts are in the right place". Plus, the movie is very satisfying, just as Disney's similarly themed Glory Road was 6 years later.
So it's time to start burning through the 51st Scoring At The Movies episode because what's right is right. Wait, maybe that should be what's left is left. After all, LEFT SIDE! STRONG SIDE!
