Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/4 --
"Undefeated" doesn't have a deep penetration of poverty and race in its playbook, but it does have enough heart to make substantial forward progress.

Rating: 4/5 --
The true heart of the film is jovial, red-haired coach Bill. Not having had a father, he passionately gives every fiber of his soul to helping these African American boys, who are also missing fathers.

Like all memorable sports documentaries -- and this Oscar-nominated film is definitely one of those -- UNDEFEATED is really an examination not of how games are won and lost but how lives are lived...

Rating: 4/5 --
The epitome of what a good sports documentary should be.

3 stars out of 5 -- [T]he intimate style offers its own rewards.

I admit, I was not enthusiastic about reviewing another sports film, let alone football. Now I can say that I understand why people see football as a religion -- in a good way.

Product Description:
The football program at Manassas High School in Memphis, TN, has earned a powerful reputation during the school's 110-year history, but unfortunately it doesn't happen to be a positive one. The Manassas team has never been eligible for a single play-off game, and no one expected this to change before Bill Courtney entered the picture. Courtney was a businessman and football fan who took it upon himself to do something about the Manassas football program; he volunteered his services as coach and began shaping a hapless team into one with genuine prospects. Filmmakers Dan Lindsay and T.J. Martin followed Courtney and his players through the 2009 season, and their documentary UNDEFEATED examines the coach's efforts to give the school a winning record, as well as the sometimes complex relationship between Courtney, a white, wealthy businessman, and his players, who are all black and mostly come from communities stuck in a cycle of poverty and crime. UNDEFEATED received its world premiere at the 2011 South by Southwest Film Festival.
