Review: Yet another remake from our screenwriters in Hollywood. What DO they get paid for over there anyway? Anyway, Remake aside, this one is a good movie in it's own right. With Sandler, Rock and Reynolds, This one is a side splitting romp on the gridiron. less violent than the original, but still a hard hitting football action film. Definatley a film not for kids, lot's of violence, language and inuendo. Just a hair's breath from R rated, this show is one to be evaluated before you turn the kids loose with the disk.
