The operative word is sob.I have certainly shed a tear or two at countless films. You get a dedicated teacher and a bunch of misfit students, you'll get a tear out of me. You throw some adversity at an athlete or a team that overcomes it you'll probably see a tear as well, but this film just struck a chord. Not everyone who sees it will feel this way. I know that, but Nicholson is so damned brilliant as is Freeman. It is a joy to watch their characters for a little over 90 minutes, and the message, well, I hope it hits you as it did me. I wanted to go hug everyone that means anything to me. Sure the film has some flaws, but Reiner and company are to be commended. Thanks for opening up some feelings that I have spent years learning to hide. For the record I laughed a fair amount as well. Go see this film.

Charming, funny - in fact, very funny in places, poignant, sentimental without being gushy, and just plain well acted and well written. If you are considering this film for a quiet evening's viewing, you just won't go wrong with this film, period. If you haven't seen it you really should drop it in the must see category, and get round to spending some time with a couple of old bastards reviewing their final years.
