Review of Pride

Pride (2007)
5/10
Going through life without a hoop.

Sometimes a movie is not technically good, but it is still worth watch anyway. I generally find that sports movies fall into that category.

The script and the direction in this film left a lot to be desired, and the actions was not always first rate - largely, I believe, because of the script and direction, but I still felt inspired after watching the film and was pleased at the time spent.

I do like Terrence Howard, and thought him great in both Hustle & Flow and Crash. I wish he has better dialog and direction here, but he did the best he could with what he had to work with and gave us an enjoyable performance.

I am not a big fan of Bernie Mac, but did enjoy his performances in Mr. 3000 and Bad Santa. He was superb here and i thought he gave the best performance of his career.

Kimberly Elise (The Great Debaters, John Q) was also enjoyable, and Tom Arnold was a real jerk.

It will touch your heart.
