Coach Carter

Sir means business and I love it !!!! Samuel Jackson kills this role, too good. I really enjoyed this story and the ending. The fact it’s true???!! Ugh makes it so much better. No notes

Didn't realise this was a true story till the credits, just when I thought it couldn't get any more real. Some scenes feel like stereotypical high school drama and others flip the script completely and dunk you straight into life's brutal reality. I was expecting the traditional losers-to-winners storyline and you get that, just not in the way you expect it. I could've cried at the off-court drama, as cheesy as it can be, the cast does a great job of making it feel personal. No matter where 'sir' Sam Jackson/Carter was, I felt both alarmed by his authority and comforted by his conscious. Loved the soundtrack and motifs, reminds me of all the movies we got to watch in high school.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world.
