Glory Road reminded me of Miracle: They both start with a coach assembling a team, and end with that team doing something seemingly impossible. Notwithstanding one scene with mild violence, this is an excellent movie to take the kids to see; not only is it "safe", but its message is valuable.
The director (not Bruckheimer as another review mistakenly wrote), James Gartner, does a artful job of depicting the intensity of the basketball games...particularly the final game against Kentucky. Josh Lucas does a superb job as Coach Haskins; the audience immediately identifies with him.
Overall, I give the movie an 8 out of 10.
