Game Day

Richard Lewis shows why he should be considered for many more parts than he has in the past. His range as an actor is confirmed by his performance in this wonderful look at college basketball. The game sequence is one of the best I've ever seen in a sports movie as far as realistic play is concerned....that from an ex-basketball player from Kansas. Despite the fantastic finish, the play of the game, the flow of it, is much more credible than any basketball film I've seen before but it is so much more still. As a commentary on cannabis, it is non judgmental and wonderfully objective. I just think that anyone with a good sense of humor should view this film and see Richard Lewis at his best. It opened my eyes to his talent and I have since been a big fan of his.

Don't buy this movie in the one dollar bin from Wal-mart... they must have cut out all the good parts like the nudity and drug use.... I discovered this when I found that there was no cursing and saw the movie was cut from 105 minutes listed on this IMDb page to the 75 minutes i saw. Overall i thought it was a good film. A few laughs, a few stirring moments and a twist ending that will will stick to you like rice to teriyaki chicken...

Imagine my surprise after watching this film that there are thirty five more splendid moments of cinema left to watch. I was horrified. Watching RIchard Lewis change from a comedian to submitting one of the most stirring portrayals of a basketball coach is something that was a joy to watch. Anyhow, I recommend this film to all studying movie-making.

I rate this movie at the same level as Hollywood Knights Very watchable and movies that you and probably not many of your friends have seen or on Kodi. The main characters are priceless and I do not think they have ever reached the same level that they did in these movies. Steve Adler and Newbaum Turk are two great characters in b level movies that are really enjoyable. The pot smoking scene with Steve is quite good.

Words cannot do this film justice; you really have to see for yourself.

A banal script about an unsympathetic coach finding himself in a championship game surrounded by an unlikely series of events which raises the stakes.

This had to be intentional: it i s not possible to make a film this bad by accident. It deserves a lifetime Razzie for just how bad it is, and that list includes "classics" like Sleepaway Camp (which had sequels) or The Dentist (which also had a sequel).

I'm not sure what this film was trying to prove, if anything, but it has failed miserably at its task. Anyone associated with this film will have much to answer for on Judgment Day.

While this movie isn't exactly "Hoosiers" or "Pride of the Yankees", it is a pretty good movie, a must see for every girl or boy who has dreams of playing big time college sports. Richard Lewis is at his neurotic/wise guy best.
