Rousing football romp, inspired by the 1987 NFL strike, in which washed-up coach Gene Hackman recruits a colorful assortment of has-been and never-were players to take to the gridi ron for the pro Washington Sentinels during a labor walk-out. Keanu Reeves is the quarterback prone to losing the big game; Brooke Langton the cheerleader he falls for; and Jon Favreau, Orlando Jones, and Rhys Ifans are among the players. 135 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital 5.1, French Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English, French; audio commentary; "making of" featurettes; theatrical trailer. Show more
