4 because somehow it's funny

I'm 100% sure there is something wrong with this score of 8,6. Must be some bots or the director having lots of friends.. I watched the full movie hoping at some point this would turn into a 8,6 movie, but it went from bad to worse. Actually I started to enjoy it again near the end. The storyline and acting was so bad it made me laugh, which made me increase the score from 1 to 4

Trivia
Despite the plot being to introduce rugby to the school this was, in fact, introducing the shortened 7-a-side rugby game. The normal version of rugby is 15-a-side, comprising 8 forwards and 7 backs. The 7s game only last 7 minutes each way whereas the 15s game last for 40 minutes each way. When the players meet the USA team, and their famous coach, this is, again, only their 7s team who compete well at the international tournaments. The 15s team is does not compete so well against other top tier nations such as New Zealand and Australia.

Goofs
When introducing the All Blacks (New Zealand National Rugby Team) on the TV Cassey described them as the starting off as underdogs. In fact, the New Zealand team have never been the underdogs, having won 3 Rugby World Cups and among the leading top tier rugby nations for over 100 years.
