Les ailes de la victoire

Boring, mainly thanks to its copied main premise from the first film of this remake trilogy.

'Angels in the Endzone' is a lame watch. I do appreciate the switching up of the backstory for the sporting events, but even then they don't exactly create a fresh, new plotline or anything - it's hearty, but something we've all seen before. The simple change from baseball to American football isn't sufficient.

The overall acting, though a big drop from the 1994 production, is actually pretty solid, even if none of the cast particularly stand tall in my memory. Christopher Lloyd is again underused, not that I blame him for not committing fully to this - the cheek to put him on the cover, by the way. Of the main, more used cast members, Paul Dooley is probably the standout.

A disappointing sequel to 'Angels in the Outfield'. Here's hoping for an improvement from 'Angels in the Infield' - I'm an optimist!

I actually saw this before its predecessor ("Angels in the Outfield"), so maybe that makes me biased, but I enjoyed it more. Like "Outfield", it's a really sensitive story about trying to overcome a loss in life. Matthew Lawrence and David Gallagher are great as the two brothers, as is Paul Dooley as the football coach. Another great Disney Channel movie that leaves you feeling good inside.

It's rare that a sequel is as good or better than the original, but "Angels in the Endzone" is certainly that. It's the story of a boy who loses interest in football after his father dies, but regains his love of the game with help from on high. A fine cast featuring Christopher Lloyd and future "Hero" Jack Coleman headline this film that, while less lighthearted than "Angels in the Outfield", is more emotionally satisfying.

The director coaxes very believable and heartwarming performances from the younger stars, and the football sequences are much more believable than most bigger budget films.

Angels in the Endzone is a very good family movie, Christopher Lloyd, Paul Dooley, and Matthew Lawrence .... give reasonably good performances. Angels is probably not the best made football movie ever made, but it has some funny sequences and serious moments. Disney actually did a good job with this one, watch it with the kids.
