Friday Night Lights
This film was just too much like the movie and the show Friday Night Lights. Not only the subject matter (high school football), but the style of filmmaking as well. Even though Undefeated is a documentary and FNL is fiction, the filmmaking techniques (use of music, football sequences, car-drive pan shots) are very similar. I think it detracted from the originality of Undefeated.
FNL was great; Undefeated is OK.
