6/10
A formulaic sports film
15 October 2023
I enjoy a good sports film, even if the genre can be cliched, and I needed a change after watching so many horror films recently. So why not watch Remember the Titans since it's available on Disney+ in the UK?

I saw the film was produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and it had a lot of Bruckheimer's hallmarks. There were inspiring speeches, sunlit cinematography, and emotional music. It was Michael Bay-lite.

Remember the TItans was a perfectly functional sports film as it shows a school and a team becoming racially integrated and the players had to learn to overcome their prejudice. It was a film that showed various characters forming friendships and many having mini-arcs during the season. It was fun to see many recognisable actors like Donald Faison, Ethan Suplee, Ryan Gosling, and Hayden Panettiere in early roles.

It's one of those films that does the job as an inspiring sports film even it if was formulaic and predictable.
