Summary: Robin and Kurt Unusual in this 80's Cult Classic
Review: Robin Williams and Kurt Russell give a performance different from their norm. I have never liked Robin or Kurt that much, but I liked this film because it is likeable, minus all the profanity and other tactless nonsense included in this film. The storyline was the most acceptable part. I purchased this DVD about a year ago, and as soon as I finished watching this film, two things occurred to me. A) This film does present itself in an oddly, almost irreverently comedic tone and B)The Best of Times, though certainly interesting, should not have recieved the acclaim that many people gave it. It was never a critics choice, however, and rightly not, because it is at best a B- kind of thing. It is, however, worth checking out because it's a Sunday night classic.
BOTTOM LINE: Don't waste 2 hours on it if you hate small towns, football, a combination of the two, or bad acting by no-names included in the less than all-star back cast.

Summary: Spirited
Review: Surprisingly fun and insightful. Early William's vehicle portrays him as the long suffering goat in a small town. Russell plays the ex jock who threw the dropped pass in The Big Game so many years ago. William's loser strikes on the idea of replaying the big game and redeeming himself. Enormously silly, obvious, predictable and fun.

Summary: If only I didn't drop the winning touchdown pass
Review: This is a great movie for anyone who has botched something and never had the chance for redemption. Jack drops what would have been a winning touchdown pass against his arch-rival and takes it upon himself to rewrite history. Robin Williams and Kurt Russell are great as best friends whose fortunes have changed since their high school football days. There is even a small role by a very young Kirk Cameron.

Summary: Friday night in Any Town USA
Review: This movie hits at the core of small town America. The men and women have well defined roles that each is willing to play out. The men are the warriors and the women are the support system needed to keep things together, no matter what the age of the warrior or the maiden.
