Hoosiers Ratings & Reviews
- Charles LondonFebruary 28, 2025Some call this the best sports movie ever made. I fully concur, but yet, the film is so much more. High school basketball in early 1950's Indiana may be the background story, but it's human drama that takes center court. Exceptional character development and acting. Gene Hackman is at the top of his game and "Hoosiers" is a watch-list slam dunk.
- al.s4February 28, 2025One of THE greatest movies ever made! Hackman left his mark on this one like VERY few others could only dream of! i
- Eric BakkeJanuary 15, 2025Hoosiers is an emotionally charged crowd-pleaser that showcases the power of small-town dreams and the redemptive journey of an underdog basketball team. With standout performances from Gene Hackman and Dennis Hopper, it delivers both heart and grit, making it a timeless sports classic.
