Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Simply Perfect

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

This movie doesn't do anything new. And yes,it is full of clichés. Who cares! People who love the genre will watch it anyways. This movie does what it aims for. And that is make you feel good. Nothing more nothing less. My only complaint is that it could have used more jokes. Keke Palmer as Jasmine is the first woman to take part in The Pop Warner Football Tournament. Surely they could have come up with more scenes to exploit this. Or at least show her struggle before being accepted as a team member of all boys. I also would have loved to learn more about Jasmin Plummer (Does she still play football?). Overall this movie is adequate and certainly not as bad as the low rating suggests.

Ice Cube stars in the inspiring and very well done (by Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit?) of the first girl to quarterback a team in the Pop Warner Championship game.Yes its by the numbers and yes you kind of almost (though not quite) know how its going to come out, but at he same time Ice Cube and the rest of the cast sell the cliché and you really don't mind watching. High art? Hardly, but a good little film that is surprisingly better than the dozen or so similar films from the last couple of years (and trust me I think I've seen most of them and suffered through the uninspiring lot of them.Worth a look on cable if nothing else.

The Longshots was a great family movie. In my opinion it was one of the greatest sports movies. This was a movie the whole family can enjoy. It was not very long at all. So that was a good thing about the movie along with the acting. The movies story was explained very well. It had a very good story to it as well. It was very heartwarming and a harmless movie. It even had many fun laughs. The jokes were original and the movie had a lot of heart. I would go see this movie again. I think it was very fun and entertaining. Not to many family movies can top this one. Definitely a movie I recommend going to see. It was entertaining and not boring at all. It might even make you cry. Go see it and have a fun time watching a girl play football.

The only complaint I have is that the biggest gaffe of all has you following the dots- on Keke Palmer's face. In many scenes her acne is more than apparent while seconds later you're left wondering when she slapped on the miracle cream. It's VERY distracting. Also not her fault.Otherwise, Keke pulls off her part of this true life story of Pop Warner's first female quarterback wonderfully. Ice Cube's character, her uncle, develops realistically when it comes to his relationship with his niece.We had the choice of seeing this or Journey to the Center of the Earth in 3-D. I LOVE Brandon Fraser, but we were not disappointed in our choice. Our ten year-old son has heard the word "a*s" before, so that part really didn't bother me. The movie also contains teachable moments for parents to afterward discuss: how school can be rough when it comes to teasing and being made fun of.Fred Durst, yes, THE bad boy Fred Durst of music fame, did a credible job as well, proving he is multi-talented and can handle a family movie.All in all, the movie was well paced, nothing "dragged", and other than the above mentioned continuity issue our entire family enjoyed the movie.
