Ehirerapp Waste of time

Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

tomtosh First, a disclaimer: I am a proud graduate of Fordson ('71). When I attended, Fordson was by no means "all white," as the description states. Among my classmates, the names Berry, Hamood, Zion, Saleh, Hadous, Amen, Moslimani, etc., were well represented.The film presents Fordson as a tiny specimen within a larger American society. But for those who attend -- including administration, coaching staff, and teachers -- the school itself takes on the role of the world and of society for three years. Therefore, a critical question, unasked and unanswered by the film is: what are the thoughts and feelings of those who are now a minority in Fordson's micro-society: non-Muslim Americans?We see a brief glimpse of something quite interesting and possibly telling in the film: The Fordson players gather of their own volition to recite an Islamic prayer before a big game. Their crosstown rivals, Dearborn High, also has players of the Islamic faith, however, perhaps not yet a majority, because we see both Islamic and Christian prayers being offered from their side.I can attest that many of the feelings and experiences expressed by the people in the film regarding fear and hatred against those of the Arab community by non-Arab Americans has been all too true. I will also say that many non-Arab Americans recognize the need to examine and eliminate all forms of this kind of prejudice from our hearts. In summary, this film is simply a prelude, an introduction, to some very important questions: What does it truly mean to be both a good American and a good Muslim? Also: What does it mean to be a good American when dealing with those who are not like my group? I am hoping this film will inspire others to tackle those questions beyond the superficial aspects presented by the film.

lqader4529 Inspiring movie that will hopefully help ease racial and religious intolerance. At least that is my hope for this movie.For those who are curious and want to learn more about Muslims in America this is a good movie to watch.As a Muslim I hope this will help others to see that we are no different from anyone else in this country. Trying to make a place and a living for ourselves. This film has inspired my twelve year old nephew to take up football when it is available. If you have a boy and want to encourage him to take up football this is a good movie to watch.
