...a rousing egghead triumph.

I walked in knowing what the movie was about, but unprepared for its intelligence and depth.

...a chest-swelling story about second chances and flipping a finger up (even a giant foam one) to The Man.

...et sobert drama bygget adstadigt op og med elegant fornemmelse for timing.

...hver gang Brad Pitt er i billedet, er det med en overbevisning og en tilstedeværelse der sætter spilletiden i relief.

...puts a funky kind of Gladwellian-Freakonomic spin on the underdog sports movie.

...ett klassiskt sportdrama där underdoghjälten ska hjälpa de missanpassade och misslyckade att mot alla odds nå framgång.
