Hometown Legend

I loved Hometown Legend. In fact my sister and brother are watching right now.. It is a very good and clean movie. I love Alabama and they give a good inpreation of it there. haha They directed it very well. I loved "Left Behind' and when I saw that the director from "Left Behind" directed it I knew I would like this movie. God Bless, Kathryn

Even if you're not a sports fan it is a great family movie. Great football scenes, music and actors. Mark McLachlan is super as "Sherman Naters"....go "Shermanater"! Excellent for for all ages. Keeps you hanging on till the end.

Better off reading the book if you want the story.

The football scenes looked like a bunch of JR High kids. Slow and sloppy.

Also, realizing telling the whole story would have taken 4 hours at the pace of this movie, there was WAY TOO much left out and to the imagination.

I absolutely LOVED the book, but was bored silly during the whole movie after the first 10 minutes which I admit did choke me up. But if I hadn't read the book even that would have bored me. I would still have thought it was a poor to only OK movie.

i have seen the movie and it was filmed in fairhope which isn't that far from where i live. Actually, they used one of my friends property,(well her grandfathers)and they actually filmed her and her sister as extras, but after watching the movie i think they cut them out, but still i thought it was really cool.

I thought this movie was pretty good for the budget they had to work with. I live near where some of the movie was filmed. You know that scene in the beginning with the guy jumping over the fence? That was on my Uncle's property in Robertsdale. Some of the Cafe scenes were also filmed in Robertsdale at Mac and Jerry's. The filming people even left some of the props they brought in back of Mac and Jerry's. It's kind of weird living right down the road from where some of this movie was filmed. Hometown Legend is a decent, family friendly movie that deserves to be seen. All in all, I really enjoyed it, and am glad that I bought it.
