In the high schools are integrated and Coach Boone is chosen to become the head coach of the football team while Coach Yoast is demoted to assistant coach. Light, but effective by Boheme97 This movie received a lot of criticism for being a little too "light" in it's depiction of racism in that time period.
However, the fact that Disney decided to take on the topic at all astounds me. I think that this movie is incredibly effective and an excellent football movie. It really sucks you into these characters and make you feel for them. I am emotionally affected by this film no matter how many times I've seen it, and I think that this movie will stand up over time as one of the most endearing sports classics of all time.
And maybe, I don't know, maybe we can learn to play this game like men. They cross the line of scrimmage I swear to God I'm going to take every one of you out. Feel good movie from Disney by jhaggardjr "Remember the Titans" is a movie that by the end of seeing it makes you feel good. And why shouldn't it? You would figure that it'll be a nice little picture since it comes from the Walt Disney Company, and I think it's perfect for the whole family. Together they try to get their players of both races to get along and put on a winning team.
In addition to Washington and Patton, there are some other terrific performances by the young actors who portray the football players. I see some future stars here. The movie has plenty of dramatic moments with some delightful comedy thrown in the middle of it.
It obviously gets a little predictable towards the end which keeps "Remember the Titans" from being a perfect movie. But so what? This is a sports movie and usually sports movies almost always ends with "the big game". Who's going to win that big game? I won't say who wins the big game in "Remember the Titans", but in the end you'll be rooting for the Titans to win, win, win!
And that's all that matters. Bottom line: "Remember the Titans" is an excellent film, very well made and very well acted by everyone involved. In Greek mythology, the Titans were greater even than the gods. Williams High School, a now hot bed integrated school, becomes a beacon of unification via their mixed race football team.
As is normally the case with films of this ilk, it quickly comes to pass that certain artistic licence has been taken with the truth. In reality the issues of race, integration and the near powder-keg atmosphere portrayed in the picture, were long past their worst in Virginia However, that should in no way detract from the thematics and truthful aspects of this Disney production. All told, the film soars high as an inspirational piece, not only for the mixed race community coming together plot's essential being, but in the crucial tale of one Gerry Bertier.
That this film urged me to seek out the story of Bertier is a testament to the power of film, regardless of any sort of sentimental prodding from the film makers. It's hoped that this film also prompts newcomers to research further the topics within the story. The cast list is impressive, Denzel Washington and Will Patton find instant chemistry as the head coaches thrust together by outside influences, with both guys beautifully doing credit to the real life friendship that would be born from the situation.
The soundtrack is nicely put together, with the core offering of Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell's thumping rendition of "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" particularly potent and uplifting. Though not primarily offering up anything new in the pantheon of race and sport related movies, Remember The Titans does have so much good going for it.
It's hard to be picky, even churlish about the little faults are these actors really the age of high schoolers for example? So hopefully come the end, after the credits roll, you will be suitably inspired, and perhaps a touch more better off for having spent time with this particular football team. Remember the Titans indeed- promised to be a great film and it was by TheLittleSongbird Rememmber the Titans is a wonderful film, compelling, compassionate, funny and often moving.
It tells the story of a dedicated coach seen tackling the explosive combination of football and racial desegregation in s America. The film is quite ambitious, but it not only really does pack an emotional punch but it does linger long into the memory and is several notches above sports movies I have seen.
For one thing, it is slickly directed by Boaz Yakin, and benefits also from wonderful cinematography and a music score of sweeping grandeur, almost epic. Hayden Pannetiere also gives a fine performance, even though I didn't see how her character would ever overcome her differences with her sister.
The script is extremely sharp and decisive, the editing is crisp and fast and the football parts are enough to pump up your adrenaline. The epilogue could bring tears to your eyes, as it is so beautifully put. All in all, wonderful film. It will make you cry at parts, laugh at parts, "goose pimples" will appear on your arms at parts, it will also make you cheer out loud from your seat!
A must see. Not a Slam Dunk by Hitchcoc Racial prejudice is the pariah of our society. It permeates every avenue to making the world a fair place to live. It's not just American society either. It's in the North, the South, and everywhere overseas. Prejudice is counterproductive and ugly. This movie sort of pretends to rise above it. It's a feel good movie in some respects. While racism is at the center of the film, the answers are just a little too pat.
It's just a little too easy. Granted, it's just a movie, but I wish it got a little more down and dirty. Some of these kids are going to hold onto stuff their parents have driven into them a lot longer than this.
Now all that said, I still enjoyed the film. The characterizations of Coach Boone and Coach Yoast are well drawn. They are both good men who love their players. They are both excellent role models.
And the players and the game scenes are believable although I am getting tired of every hit on the field sounding like a Buick hitting a concrete wall--this is happening in most football movies. The growth of Gary and the Rev is nicely done and we hope that it really happened that way. I enjoyed the two white guys who just kind of matter of factly walked into practice--Sunshine and Louis--who just wanted to play football. There are some kids out there who don't think about race very much.
They are pretty naive, but they are charming. I loved when Louis hugged Coach Boone and told him he was going to college.
That's a nice touch. I could go on, but others have said so much already. It's a good action movie with nice human characters. It just gets a little simplistic at times and it needs to answer for that. Entertaining, and with a story all peoples should see, I rate it "8" of
