I'm so happy that most of America now treats all Americans equal most of time. The 60's were a sad, scary time. The movie was superb!

I think most reasonable Americans will say that they are not racist and deplore it. This is different then saying you agree with cultural values that certain races have proposed to adopt for themselves. Glory Road is a fine story, no disagreement, but like all racial movies, it lacks honesty, and fair dealing. Truth be told, racism is not an issue today for blacks, period. It was then. This story does a fine job of telling it, and making it halfway interesting. But, there is always more to a story than the pro-liberal anti-racist message. It is truly unfortunate, that we can never address the issues of race honestly. How about a movie about Tookie Williams, the evil black man who killed 4 people in cold blood b/c he was a "street survivor". Or we need a movie about how oppressed Whitney Houston is during her last 20 years as a coked up millionaire who is constantly getting arrested. Or maybe a movie about 50 cent, a true story about how he murdered people and sold crack to people while ruining their lives. Or how about a movie that questions black culture, instead of a movie that constantly demonizes white culture as racist, from a time most Americans don't remember. I am unclear as to how these reverse racist movies are always getting made. The VAST majority of white people today bend over backwards and sideways to accommodate black people to insure their every unnecessary demand is met, and that every possible advantage is given them at every challenge. Every college provides unheard of scholarships for black kids based on their color, whilst charging white students exuberant amounts. These are stories that need to be made into movies. But that will not happen. We live in a strange era, where honest talk and forthright communication that asks real questions is severely oppressed by the Government and law. The new McCartyism is, without any shadow of doubt, Racism. This movie promotes the big lie, that whites are racist. People actually still believe this when every shred of evidence points to the contrary. Special privileges are conferred upon blacks at every corner, every excuse given for their behavior, while no accountability is administered. Unfortuanate. And movies like this continue to feed that big race lie. Many people after reading this will be angry. My answer is why? I am not racist. I do not hate the black skin color. No, I think very critically about movies and the issues they pose. I have a Dr. who is black, a female law professor who is black (and very, very intelligent)and several black friends, (unfortuantely too, in this day and age you must always qualify yourself, when thinking critically, as a "non-racist") I engage in real conversation w/ blacks quite a bit about the problems I see with their assertions. I can tell you, most at first get mad at me, then listen intently, they realize I do not hate. People who call people racist cop out, and are more full of hate and spite then those they chide. No, people respect me b/c I respect them, but I do not sign off on socially acceptable messages, when under the surface they are very hurtful. As is the case w/ Glory Road, a seemingly truthful movie that shows how blacks are human and special. Thats fine, but it falls on its face in sincerity, and the movie itself charges racism a/g whites. Please, if you see this, remember that it is a clear message that should be taken with a grain of salt.

The movie was way too similar to Remember the Titans and they're portrayal of coach Rupp was disturbing. I agree with one of the previous posts that they changed a lot just to make the movie more appealing. The movie made it seem as if black players were a whole new thing when coach Haskins introduced this team when in reality there were many black players. But i digress since these faults were already discussed in another post. Had Remember the Titans not been released, i may rate this movie higher, and since some of the same people worked on the two films i find it even more surprising that the two were THAT similar. Some of the acting was a little off as well (some parts just seemed like a home movie with amateur actors). Some of the team scenes were funny at times though giving a little plus to the movie. So, if you really enjoy movies like Coach Carter and Remember the Titans, and don't mind watching the same movie with a different sport and different actors then maybe this movie would be better for you than it was for me but i have a hard time giving it a good rating.

This is one of the best movies I've seen. It brought out the issue of race back in the 60s without being graphic. Very well done.

This movie was fantastic, Josh Lucas was great. I had so much fun watching this and it was about so much more than just a basketball team winning in the NCAA. It was about the 60's, racism, and getting past all of that. What is so sad, is our world has not changed much since then. More people need to see this film and ask themselves what they are still doing living in the past with their racial issues and tensions. We are all equal! Let's have fun and enjoy this life together!!
