With the Philippines again standing in for Vietnam, this low-budget actioner stars David Carradine as a ruthless, renegade American army colonel who disobeys orders to sneak his crack team into Cambodia to destroy a Viet Cong supply train. But when he steps over the line and after much convoluted mayhem orders the slaughter of innocent Cambodian villagers, his right hand man turns upon him and a deadly conflict ensues. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi
After a recruitment scandal, a struggling college football team is forced to turn to a rag-tag group of misfits in this sports comedy. It seems that Texas State University's football team has relied on some rather unorthodox -- and illegal -- methods to gain players, resulting in the disqualification of most of the team's stars. The desperate coach (Hector Elizondo) must rely on the school's actual students, a motley crew of unlikely characters that includes a female place kicker and a quarterback in his thirties. Unexpectedly, however, the coach discovers that the passer still has a heck of an arm, and suddenly the team again has a chance. The expected comic complications and obvious bits of slapstick follow as this band of eccentrics struggles to find a way to victory, resulting in a familiar reprise of a well-worn storyline. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi
