They recruit guys from soccer, basketball, a farm and even other football teams to come and play for them. Lengyel has a new vision for Marshall, and calls them the “Young Thundering Herd.” Jack is the person to do things that most coaches wouldn’t do because that just in his personality. As a result he seeks out help from Bobby Bowden, the coach of the University of West Virginia. Jack asks him “if He and Dawson can see the coaches’ videos, plays, and handbooks and even if he had any tips for them.” Bowden laughs at first and asks “if Jack was serious…” He then see that the men are serious and allows them to view the tapes, rules, handbooks and anything else they wanted.

The late 1700s and early 1800s was a critical time period in American history in which our newly independent nation was beginning to lay down the groundwork for how the country would run. During this time, America was in its infancy and its crucial first steps would dictate how the nation would either walk, run, or retreat. John Marshall, the fourth Chief Justice of the Unites States, was a highly important and influential political figure whose decisions forever molded the future of the American judicial system. Like many other great political figures, much of John Marshall’s influence can be attributed to timing; he emerged just as the United States Constitution came into existence.

Overall I found the movie to be quite interesting and exciting at times but a bit slow in others. The story itself was very clear to me and didn’t cause any confusion. It had a good flow also, just as you were on the verge of falling into boredom with a scene they switched it up on you to keep you

Racism, prejudice, compassion and love is what you get when you break down Remember the Titans. The movie deals with a high school football team that's been integrated and the team has to learn to deal with each other. This is true not just for the players but the coaches as well. They have to overcome huge obstacles dealing with racism and prejudice within the team, school and town.

This Movie also shows viewers how to be good sports although they encounter with one of the higher class kids of their neighborhood of course Benny and his team win and celebrate their victory by going to the local carnival and end up doing the most stupid things any of them could think of. Other things i also liked about this movie is that they worked as a team and help each other when needed also how most of them still were friends when older. Things i don't like about the Movie is how they can be very hard headed when it came to getting Smalls Ball back Smalls says that instead of trying to sneak up on the beast maybe asking Mr.Mertle if he can get the ball back Squints tells Smalls that Mr.Mertle was one of the meanest old man ever, but that wasn't the case

I won't give too much away so if you want watch it if you don't then don't I don't care, but I would watch it if I were you. I give it 5 stars out of 5 because it is a truly an amazing movie, and I would like to leave with a few wise words "if it ain't broke brake

Mazzello (The Pacific), having based the film on his own brother's disappoint of not reaching the major leagues, as I said early, isn't perfect. The film jumps in and out of rhythm, almost like he didn't want to edit anything. Event with that, though, the cast and characters are likable enough to keep you interested. The film is at it's best during the scenes focusing on the camaraderie or lack of inside the 12 man unit. Some might say the characters are bit stereotypical, but from my experience of cover sports, (yah this nerd use to do that), and being around athletics, I'd say I've met a lot of these guys before.

“I did my own thing, and my first three years at Fremont I joined the computer club and kept my distance from the superjocks.” (Klass 5). When Jack was invited to the private football tryout by his friend, he expressed uneasiness about playing sports at a high level. “Thanks, Rob, but I really don’t think I’m varsity material.” (Klass 18). After Jack rejected the offer to play on the football team and Jack joining the Losers, Jack was voted captain of the team because of his leadership skills, prominent family within the school and his strong athletic ability. “‘This is our last game, and we should try something new. Suppose we prove that Muhldinger was wrong and we’re not garbage? Lynton beat up on our football team and our whole town. Let’s win one for Fremont, and wreck their chance at a perfect record.’” (Klass 278). Although the Losers started as a school requirement for Jack, he quickly learned that he loved playing soccer and was proud to score the first goal for his school. “But before he dove I saw his weight shift and I winged my shot at the near corner, so that he launched himself away from the ball. It flew into the unprotected near corner for our first Fremont score.” (Klass 299). The Losers changed the school community from being a sports-crazed school to a school that accepts and looks out for all students. “‘Principal Anderson sent it around to

In the movie “Marshall” we take a look at one of Thurgood Marshall early cases. In “Marshall”, Thurgood starts off at a train station getting ready to board and some bad cats walk up to him and started screaming obscene things at Thurgood. We see Thurgood going into the NAACP office and someone is waiting for him to tell him he will be taking a rape case in New York. Thurgood tells his wife that he will have to leave again for another court case. So he goes to New York and enlists the help of local lawyer Samuel Friedman. Marshall needed a co-counselor based in Connecticut to help him argue the case, someone more familiar with the laws and politics particular to the state. Sam’s response wasn’t to welcoming. He felt like this was a case that could possible ruin his career. He wanted nothing to do with it. After a few movie minutes we go to see the man accused of rape. It’s an African American male named Joseph Spell. Spell is accused of raping his former boss Eleanor Strubing. Mrs.Strubing had come home from dinner with friends. She was fresh from the shower and wearing only a robe when Spell knocked on her bedroom door and asked if he could borrow some money. She claims Spell raped her made her get dressed took her downstairs, bound her hands and feet, and raped her again. After forcing her to write a ransom note, he put her in the car, cut off the bottom of her dress and gagged her with the remnant, and drove until a policeman stopped the car. The officer did not

This movie was a great and interesting documentary. This documentary was based on guys playing for Team USA in wheel chair rugby. They were guys that were trying to make a big adjustment to life by playing wheelchair rugby. It also gave a brief history about one of Team USA’s former players. It also documents the lives of some of these players that are on the team on how successful they are.

Honestly I recommend this movie to any teen and every teen but I especially recommend it to underestimated teams because I think they could relate much more to the movie; also this movie may be able to boost their team’s self-esteem. I do recommend this movie to some adults but not as much as kids and teens mainly because an adult is not going to be able to relate as much as teens or to be more exact PG-13 (mostly because of the language used).
