    Wholesome, cute little movie
    I don't really understand why the rating is so low, this movie is a gem. It is heartwarming, uplifting and also funny. The acting is great, especially of the young actors portraying the members of the sports team which bring authenticity and sincerity to their roles.

    The movie also delivers a powerful message about the value of friendship, acceptance and compassion. It also shows that competition is not always the most important part - but cohesion, support and spending time with each other.

    In my opinion it's a good option for anyone that wants to watch a 'good-feel' movie, suited for audiences of all ages.

    Everything you expect
    Yes, it's everything you'd expect, which of course means there are no real surprises. But that's fine, you're not watching this movie to get challenged or to do too much thinking. This movie is all about the feels, and it delivers.

    Of course, all the supporting cast are inspiring and you can tell that they had fun making this movie.

    Of course, Woody nails his part as always.

    But the female lead was my favorite character. She's beautiful, snarky, and has some great one liners.

    Kudos to the writers for some very witty lines.

    Kudos to the directors for creating a simple gameplan, drawing it up in practice, and nailing the execution.

    Oh yeah, it also has Cheech!!!
