Michaelnek nehéz gyermekkora volt, Memphis utcáin nőtt fel. Egy napon azonban találkozik egy asszonnyal, Leigh Anne-nel, és ez alapjaiban változtatja meg mindkettőjük életét. A jómódú, középosztálybeli, fehér bőrű házaspár ugyanis magához veszi a nagydarab, lézengő fekete bőrű kamaszt: a Tuohy család új fiúra, gyerekeik testvérre, Michael pedig otthonra lel. A fiú lassan oldódik fel az új környezetben, ám a sport révén rátalál önmagára. Michaelből az amerikaifoci egyik legnagyobb csillaga lesz. A Tuohy család története bizonyítja, hogy nemcsak anyagiakkal lehet másokon segíteni. (HBO Europe)

Sandra Bullock's role of a lifetime. A strong mother with emotion, love, and courage. A beautiful story about how being great doesn't mean being confident. The first half of the film was very moving, the second half, when everything was all about football, was a bit weaker in my opinion.

The Pursuit of Happiness on steroids, only that instead of the stock exchange, we have rugby. It's clear that overweight middle-class Americans, who are blindly full of the right values, with a preference for the simplest and most understandable (i.e., literally as stupid as possible), loved this and went to the cinema in droves. But comprehensively speaking, this "how it's supposed to look" commercial has neither a dramatic arc nor a hallmark of realism. It's all too stilted, straightforward and uncomplicated, going for a simple level start-finish. But individuals who have to fight for something more than the standard in life know very well that this is not exactly how it works. Sandra Bullock's acting is very economical and spot on – her interactions with the characters, on the other hand, are fantasy.

The script, somehow very Americanized, doesn't allow me to believe that something like this could really happen. The whole thing is extremely idealized and desperately predictable. It seems to me like a sports fairy tale for children and adults, which is nice to look at, but that's all. (50%)
