Texas Ten Step
In a scene from Glory Road, the head coach puts one of his players through an exhausting drill as punishment for violating team rules. During the drill, the player stops to ask the coach when the team will start to use some more of the strengths of the players. The coach explains that first comes... Read full review »
There's No Glory Here
Glory Road are two love stories, racial injustice, basketball action, and just about anything related to a feel good sports movie. I suppose you are expected to come out of the theater loving Bruckheimer films but the reality sets in and you are annoyed that you spent ten bucks when you could have... Read full review »
Takes a page out of basketball history.... (Lean & Mean)
I was fortunate, during my viewing of "Glory Road" to be sharing an almost empty movie theater one afternoon with a famous pro football coach and his family of young boys. I say that because I might have made light of the film that I saw, contrasting it to more serious and worthy sports films (Does... Read full review »
No Flowery Road Leads to Glory: Don Haskins and Texas Western Win Big
I've visited several hundred college campuses over my lifetime. Some of them I lived or worked on. Some of them my parents worked on. Some of them held seminars or workshops I attended. Some of them I toured before I decided where to attend school. Some of them I just rode around for a few minutes... Read full review »
No Glory for Bruckheimer in "Glory Road"
When I realized that Jerry Bruckheimer was putting together this film on such a powerful moment in sports history, I was concerned. These concerns were not unfounded. Bruckheimer--as per his usual modus operandi--puts style over substance, and in the process butchers what could have been a truly... Read full review »

Glory Road
I played basketball for four years during high school. I enjoyed it. I knew the thrill of winning by a major margin and by losing by a small margin. Of losing to a rival or beating a rival. I knew what it was like to go to practice or to tryouts and have to do your very best to prove that you... Read full review »
Glory Road Takes the Long (and some might say the Wrong) Way Home
Glory Road tells the true story of famed college basketball coach, Don Haskins, and his scrappy team of African American players who had to overcome pervasive racism - ranging from nasty remarks to physical attacks - in order to win the 1966 NCAA basketball championship.
Haskins was a young...

despite tipping their hand, the film works.
Sports films have long been a popular genre in Hollywood as classics such as "Pride of the Yankees", "The Natural", and "Raging Bull" are all examples of some of the finest examples of sports films which encapsulate the very essence of the sport they portray.
In the new film "Glory Road"...

Great, heartfelt movie
I loved this movie from the first frame. It held my attention and I'm not an athlete by nature. I've got 2 kids that I took with me and they loved it as well. There were some kind of intense moments, considering I had an 8 year old and a 7 year old. The acting was terrific. There were no false... Read full review »
