How can people hate this movie?
This movie is fantastic, I'm shocked to see a good amount of people hate it.
But hey, to each his own.
I haven't seen it yet but I saw someone who did and hated it, saying it was completely unrealistic how they won every single game etc... I kept telling him it was based on a true story but he called *beep* and wouldn't believe me.

Happy Evil Dude,
Exactly! I live here in VA, not far from T.C. Williams School, and they had TONS of phone calls and visits, asking about how "realistic" the movie was. Although bits and pieces were made up for theatrical purposes, the perfect football record that season was NOT made up.
Some people just don't want to believe anything anybody else tells them about a movie like this, even if you explain to them in great detail that these events actually did happen.
shareyet people will believe that jfk was killed the way hollywood did it. not the way it was told from the fbi serect serivces...
It has more to do with teh fact that the part of the racist people want to act like it never happen. that why a lot of people dislike it. I like it for that reason it show how bad it is.
this is not to be racist hopefully it does not come off a racist... But i am a bit of ashamed knowing my white people forced people and slaved them and did *beep* like this. makes me sick to my stoamic
I'm ashamed of your grammar and spelling, Jesus Christ open up a damn dictionary.

Me too...ha, they portray a school 5 minutes from DC by car as rural. What a joke. This movie was about 10% factual, at most. I guess that would be the record. Did you know that TC was the only school in our district that had to play Saturday day games instead of Friday nights? Yep, this is true. Violence. Never made the movie.

My guess, your friend just doesn't believe that a perfect high school football season can happen. If that's the case, show him this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hutchinson_High_School_(Kansas), and go down to "2009 Football Schedule" , and this will prove that it's possible, because it happened. No, I'm not a Hutch alum, but have heard about them so much it's hard to ignore, as I live not far from there. Just below that, in fact, is a list of their athletic state titles they have won, and the years, as well as separation by sport.
