    In Gridiron Gang, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson once again displays far more cinematic charisma than one could expect from a former professional wrestler. Sean Porter (Johnson, Be Cool), a football player turned juvenile detention counselor, wrestles with a seemingly insolvable problem: The vast majority of young men who leave detention fall right back into crime. Seeking a way to give these not-yet-hardened kids a taste of self-esteem and discipline, Porter persuades his superiors to let him teach the kids football--and then take on high school teams. Though based on a true story (documentary footage over the closing credits reveals that some dialogue was lifted straight from the real Sean Porter's mouth), Gridiron Gang is pure underdogs-overcome-adversity formula. A formula is not necessarily a bad thing; when executed with skill and commitment, fulfilling a classic story mechanism can be perfectly satisfying, and Gridiron Gang qualifies. But it's Johnson who carries it through, demonstrating--in the most unlikely of roles--a surprisingly gentle touch. Johnson manages to be manly without overbearing machismo, earning not only respect but empathy. --Bret Fetzer

    5 out of 5 stars Sports Films   March 8, 2010
    Michael P. Brehmer (JACKSON, MI, US)
    A great buy for anyone who is a big fan of the ROCK or loves football.


    5 out of 5 stars Gridiron Gang   January 1, 2010
    Arnita D. Brown (USA)
    In the Kilpatrick juvenile detention center, the supervisor and former football player Sean Porter sees the lack of discipline, self-esteem, union and perspective in the teenage interns and proposes to prepare a football team to play in one league. He is supported by his superiors and his successful experience changes the lives of many young kids. Gridiron Gang entertains and makes a powerful point about the faults inherent in the penal system, particularly for youths with hopes of rehabilitation. The story is well told and keeps your attention throughout. This is a movie I would watch again.

    I was able to get this one for us and I got it for my boyfriend I am glad it came right on time I was really glad that I was able to get something for him. this movie was good I haven't watched all of it but sometime when I am not so busy I will thanks again


    5 out of 5 stars Great movie   November 9, 2008
    E. Urriola (Nevada USA)
    I'm not a huge fan of football movies, but this one goes beyond that. It has its cliched moments, but overall, it has a wonderful message. And the fact that it's based on real events is even better. A movie I think everyone should see.


    5 out of 5 stars A very good movie about an important real-time subject   October 11, 2008
    Panda Puppy (Sacramento, CA)
    Dwayne Johnson did a very nice, sincere job in this part. The movie was a very believable, accurate portrayal of the subject matter.
