It took me about 5-10 minutes to come to grips with the camerawork. It took a bit longer to become familiar and engaged by the characters and story, but like all well done films, it sucked me in. The structure and presentation did remind me of "Hoop Dreams" and knowing a bit about the local importance of Texas High School football in the first place made me feel what I was seeing was close to authentic.

Solid 4 out of 5.

Tickets for games like that are by no means free..even in McKinney were I live, we now have two high schools and this year was the first "Cross Town Showdown". The line for ticket was an hour and a half to two hours. After the tickets sold out, they were going for 20-25 a piece. Then, either this weekend, or this past weekend, two major powerhouses Denton Ryan and South Lake Carrol ticktes that sold for $3 are going for outragous amounts...just look
