1. Quality

2. Summary

   Very Good 3.5

   When I first knew about this it looked like a cynical attempt on Sandra Bullock’s part to get that Oscar we all knew she wanted. But after about ten minutes of this movie you realize it’s the real deal? Is it great? No. But it’s very good(hence my rating) and Bullock fully deserved the Oscar she got. Although Bullock is the star, much credit goes to John Lee Hancock who also directed Dennis Quaid in “The Rookie” which is also a very good sports movie.

4. Acting

   Great 4.0

   Bullock really hits this one out of the park and not in a manipulative “I really want an Oscar” way. She is very generous with the other actors and never goes too far.

5. Male Stars Great 4.0

6. Female Stars Great 4.0

7. Female Costars Great 4.0

8. Male Costars Great 4.0
