Champions
Instrueret af Bobby Farrelly
Basketballtræneren Marcus (Woody Harrelson) er frustreret over, at hans karriere ikke er nået længere, end den er. Først havner han i slagsmål med cheftræneren og bliver suspenderet, senere drukner han sine sorger i flasken og får en dom for spritkørsel. Hans straf bliver 90 dages samfundstjeneste, mere specifikt skal han træne et hold af mentalt udfordrede spillere, der skal til De Paralympiske Lege. Først hader Marcus situationen, men stille og roligt varmer han op til de energiske spillere på sit nye hold.

- maxoste7. februar 2026Feel good movie 100% woody does an amazing job like usual
- sti5322. december 2025Heartwarming <3
- Dave Barnes12. marts 2025A feel good, funny film, well worth watching.
- Tyler Studanski26. juli 2025A nice feel-good movie that outlines some of the struggles of people with mental difficulties
- Kevin Ward3. juli 2025As a lifelong Seattle Supersonics fan, I did not expect this movie to reopen that wound 💔. So…. thanks for that. Otherwise, it’s a really cute film with an inclusive heart, despite being a very paint by numbers sports movie. “Seattle Sucks!”
- Nishant Arora22. juni 2025"Champions" offers a heartwarming, if predictable, journey of redemption and discovery. This feel-good sports dramedy, led by a charming Woody Harrelson, explores the transformative power of connection and the true meaning of winning. Read on to see if it's a slam dunk for your watchlist! The Good: * The standout element is undoubtedly the authentic and endearing performances from the cast portraying the "Friends" basketball team. Their charisma and natural comedic timing are infectious. * The film handles its sensitive subject matter with respect, largely avoiding tokenism and allowing the characters with intellectual disabilities to be their own people, not just plot devices for the protagonist's growth. * Woody Harrelson delivers a reliably strong performance, bringing a grounded weariness and eventual warmth to his character's arc. The Bad: * The plot follows a well-worn sports movie formula, making many of its narrative beats highly predictable from the outset. * Some of the character developments, particularly for the love interest, feel a bit underdeveloped and cliched. * The soundtrack often relies on overly on-the-nose needle drops that detract from the emotional subtlety the film sometimes achieves. While "Champions" doesn't reinvent the wheel, its genuine heart and the delightful performances from its ensemble cast make it a genuinely uplifting and enjoyable watch.
