Description
Underdogs become top dogs in this fun-filled, rough-and-fumble comedy that's "the best football movie of the last few years" (Larry Steward, Los Angles Times).
Keanu Reeves plays Shane Falco, a washed-out all-American QB who guides a team of misfits assembled by veteran coach Jimmy McGinty (Gene Hackman) to replace striking pro players.
A motormouth receiver (Orlando Jones), a merciless linebacker (Jon Favreau), a nicotine-wired kicker (Rhys Ifans) and more line up alongside Falco for a drive to the playoffs.
For sultry support, there's a cheerleader Annabelle Farrell (Brooke Langdon) and her ex-stripper squad.
"Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory lasts forever," Falco tells the team. It's a game plan that works to perfection.
