The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The title says it all. Should be a mandatory educational film for all youth lacrosse players, and perhaps even more importantly parents who feel the need to scream from the sidelines. I've played the game for 48 years now and this is by far the best lacrosse film that I have ever seen. Must see for all true lacrosse lovers.
