Summary: Fantastic, emotional, sports masterpiece!
Review: You can't help but love Rudy. The poor young man does everything he can chasing down his dream. He accomplishes so much along the way but isn't satisfied unless he plays in a Notre Dame football game. He earns respect, and assistance from friends and enemies alike setting up a classic ending to a superb story.

Summary: One of the best!
Review: I've seen this movie a handful of times, every time I come away thinking about how great it is. My high school football career consisted of 1 down in three games freshman year. I was too small, too slow and had zero athletic ability, but like Rudy, it was my dream. Now I'm part of a small group of people putting together a football league for young kids in Alaska, so they can live their dreams, I'll recommend Rudy to any kid who thinks they can't do it. See this film!

Summary: RUDY is an unbelievably well-written and well-acted piece of
Review: I cannot quite explain how much I enjoyed this movie. It had everything a moviegoer could ask for. Sean Astin and Charles S. Dutton turn in sparkling performances in their roles as Rudy and a mentor, respectively. Inspired by a real story, RUDY doesn't dissapoint one bit throughout its 113 minute running time. Jerry Goldsmith did a fantastic job with the music and score. He really captured the emotion and drama that was felt during Rudy's trials and tribulations as well as in Rudy's glory. Overall, I give Rudy five stars and place it atop my list of fine motion pictures of this century.

Summary: A masterful depiction of the human spirit
Review: "Rudy" is a triumphant cinematic effort in that it's a true story of one person's indomitable spirit that allows him to accomplish great dreams against unbeatable odds. Why this film wasn't nominated for any Oscars is puzzling considering its lush cinematography, well-written script, and stirring score by Jerry ("Poltergeist") Goldsmith. Sean Astin was a judicious choice for the lead biographical role of Rudy Ruetigger, a Illinois youngster growing up in circa 1970 who is impassioned to one day play football for the illustrious Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. However, Rudy's family and his peers believe that his dreams are just wishful thinking considering his small build and his below-par academic achievement in high school. Astin, who's been known to play underdog protagonists quite effectively in "Encino Man" and in "The Goonies", really shines as the film's misunderstood, yet tenaciously optimistic hero. "Rudy" was beautifully shot on location at the Notre Dame campus and in the greater South Bend area. I've actually been to some of those campus places in the movie myself: the stadium, "Touchdown Jesus", the gold-domed chapel, the candle sachristy where Rudy fervently prays for his dreams to come true, and the lake where Rudy poignantly reads his long-awaited ND acceptance letter (my First Love from Purdue & I used to have picnics at that lake, she was from South Bend). Also, Rudy's high school, Joliet Catholic Academy, and my old high school have been in the same Chicagoland HS athletic conference for years. So, "Rudy" has a lot of sentimental value to me in those aspects. Also, one cannot resist the film's touching finale as Rudy laces up for the ultimate memory of his lifetime: to play in the one ND game he would ever get to play in and to show to everyone who ever doubted him that his dreams had come true. No one would ever be able to take that feat away from him, not ever. The crowd's chanting of Rudy's name at that game is contagious as it is uplifting! If Life ever gets too hard with no hope in sight, remember "Rudy"!
