I gave the movie 3 stars, mainly because it was about the Bills and the first string missing the Superbowl because they ate some bad oysters, pretty ridiculous plot.

 

(And because Flutie, Ditka, and Berman were in it.)

.

 

They were in the hospital for about a month. Those were some bad clams.

 

It is schlocky and cheesy, but good.  My favorite part is when they get to the SB it's against the Vikings!  2 0-4 SB teams going head to head.  Somebody's gotta win.  :)

Incase the youngins have never seen it, its not on the PS store and can only be purchased on vudu.  I still have the dvd, but last time i gave it a watch it was on YouTube.  Entire movie is there in good qlty stream for fffrrrreeeeeeees 

 

That said, best thing going for it is ol'Van. No murph though. Decent cut shots of actual Bills in stock video doubling for 'backups'. The dialogue is cringeworthy, the qb throws like a girl and all the actors look terrible in pads. Couple nice Adamsmark shout outs as well! That said, its fun to remeber a time when it was actly believed guys would come to buffalo at a discount to win:)

 

Side note, kinda weak they gave Washington Reeds number. Thurman was featured in the opening too while Bruce made a play on Huard in the Mia game lol

what goes wrong as an actor that you wind up in that movie?

 

You make anti war movies with Hanoi Jane and get blacklisted ;)

I gave it one star, and that's being generous because the Bills win the Super Bowl at the end

 

The Bills winning the Super Bowl deserves 5 stars. 

But the rest of the movie is so f*king awful.  The writing, the acting, the low budget sets, it's just some bad TV

The main character is a Canadian actor

 

You do the math...

He punted on third down?  Got lost looking for his 52 yard line?

Might have made more sense if they just died - a bit morbid... but a month for food poisoning? Seems a bit far-fetched.
