    Think Mad Max meets Rollerball. A great bit of testosterone-fluff: predictable, violent, and the last thing in the world you'd ever pick as a date movie, but perfect for that certain rush that underdog sports movies have. A perfect fit for a night of pizza, beer, and hanging out with the guys

    This is one of my favorite movies of all time. Its a very simple story, well done, well scripted, well acted and action packed. Come to think of it I don't think there are any computer graphics in it at all. Very consistent within its own little world, which is something hardly seen in hollywood anymore.
