Summary: Movie-making Perfection
Review: Undoubtedly one of the best films of 2000, "Remember the Titans" instantly reminds us of all the great sports films, "Rocky," "Hoosiers," "Field of Dreams," etc. This movie has great performances, especially from Denzel Washington and Will Patton, and an amazingly moving musical score. There is well-developed drama revolving around race tensions of the early 70s and bone-crunching action during the football games. All great sports movies have their share of melodrama, but like those great movies, "Remember the Titans" has just the right amount to make the movie endearing.

Almost everyone will find something to love about this movie, and the PG rating makes it a great family flick. "Remember the Titans" is a movie you won't want to miss.

To get the full effect of the amazing cinematography involved in the game sequences, I recommend you pick up the "widescreen" version.

Summary: AWESOME!!
Review: This was absolutely the best movie I have ever seen in my life. I love how the teammates work together to become one team and accept each other for who they are on the inside not on the outside!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Football Movie Ever Made!
Review: What I loved about "Remember the Titans" was that it sent so many messages and it deals with the struggles going on in society today (sure schools intermix now but racism is still going on).....Denzel Washington did such an amazing job in this picture that I don't know why he wasn't even nominated for an Academy Award.......he made this story so believable and Will Patton did a great job too!......"Remember the Titans" dfelivered everything that's expected for a good movie....It has got everthing! What more could you ask for?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Everyone should like it!
Review: Another impassioned performance by Denzel! Even though this film is about a football coach, even non-sportsfans will love this movie. Denzel Washington is that rare kind of actor who is able to portray a real tough and mean character and still make everybody love him.

The film does a great job of inspiring positive race relations. It would be great if every high school sports team could come together like this one.

We only buy movies that we feel comfortable letting our young children watch, and this is definitely one we can own! The only things some parents might find objectionable for their young children is the high intensity coaching, minimal violence/protests regarding race relations, and perhaps the films inspiring effect on mom's little boys to grow up and play the dangerous game of football. :)

The extra scenes and interviews on the DVD edition are great fun. I wish the extra scenes had made it into the movie, especially for the character development of the assistant coach. The interview with the real-life coach whom Denzel Washington portrayed is neat to see.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Denzel does it again!
Review: REMEMBER THE TITANS is, to me, a heartwarming movie. It is far more than an ordinary GOOD GUYS vs. THEM OTHER TEAMS. The fact that it's based on the true life experiences of a quite extraordinary high school coach in Virginia adds credence to this story. It seems that, no matter what movie Denzel Washington is in, he is outstanding. Denzel is superb as Coach Boone, and the supporting cast is solid. If you want to enjoy something out of the ordinary, especially if you love football, you can't go wrong in purchasing this movie. I'm confident you will, as I have, watch it many times.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A MUST SEE MOVIE!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simply the Best
Review: This is no doubt one of the three best movies I have ever seen. I had the opportunity to watch it on a flight from the US to Europe. During the flight the movie selections were run three times and I watched Remember the Titans all three times! Denzel Washington is superb and his supporting cast is perfect for this movie. It's as inspiring and uplifting as any movie I have ever seen. Buy it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Cheers for the Titans
Review: This is definitely not a sports movie. The plot of the movie goes far beyond football and that made this an excellent movie. While most of the actors in the movie are not well known, it was perfectly. It's the story of a city in Virginia that is highly resistent to social changes. The amazing season of the high school's football team teaches the city a lesson. Denzel is amazing as the tough-nosed football coach.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One Of My Favorite Movies
Review: As A Fellow Amazon.com Reviewer Told Me, "Always be Honest and Speak Your Mind." And That's What I'll Do.

Remember the Titans is the true story of a small town in Virginia during the 1970's. The "white" high school and the colored "Black" high school are forced to combine into one school, the T.C Williams High School. From then on, everything turns to trouble, there are rallies, fires and fights. But just as the current football coach Yoast is about to enter the Virginian high school football hall of fame, he is replacded by his job by the new head coach, Coach Boone (amazingly acted by Denzel Washington), an experienced African- American Football Coach, from North Carolina. He asked Coash Yoast, to be assistant head coach when the two high schools combine. On top of this being between the two coaches, they both have to figure out how to bring the two teams into one team, the Titans and try to end the prejudice between the white and the colored players. Despite of the above description, the movie does a great job balancing itself so that it is dramatic and you are able to understand what racism was like during that time period, but there is plenty of humor to cause you not to be upset during the entire film. This Movie is Defintly a Must Buy, becuase I have seen this movie numerous times, and never get tired of its humor, drama and prejiduce. This movie has made me laugh, cry, and made me very much wiser about the world. I suggest buying it, but if you are always like me you always have to see it first. But I Can almost guarantee that you will absolutely love and enjoy this film. The Soundtrack, is also worth checking out, which features the hit "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Tarell. It really is fantastic. Thanks for Reading, Jordan

Summary: An awesome movie, that you won't get tired of watching!
Review: In school, I have watched this in a record of about 4 or 5 of my classes. Every time I watch it, I love it even more. I even had my grandma go out and buy it for me in WIDESCREEN! This is an awesome movie, that I most certainly, will never get tired of viewing maybe 1,000 times. The DVD is also worth it. It was released in two versions WIDESCREEN and FULL-FRAME. It's better to watch it in widescreen so you can see all the football action.

This movie is all about a school down in Virignia I think, where white people have not yet gotten to understand that blacks are people too. Well, anyway the school has a great (all-white, up until 25 minutes into the film) football team. Denzel becomes the head coach of the team when the other coach leaves (but then for some reason comes back).

The movie has a couple of hilarious one liners, and zingers. This is one of the best live-action Disney films, I've seen in years. Keep them coming Disney!
