Not unpalatable, but predictable and corny anti-gang message movie, based on the "TRUE STORY" (in preludial capital letters) of an experimental football program at Camp Kilpatrick juvenile detention center. Filmed in an in-your-face style by director Phil Joanou, with emphasis on coarse-grained closeups and pushy telephoto shots. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, billed under both his names for this "serious" acting effort, does a creditable job as the haranguing coach. With Xzibit, L. Scott Campbell, Leon Rippy, Jade Yorker, David Thomas, Setu Taase. (2006) — Duncan Shepherd
