      Audience Member http://siobhansentertainmentreviews.blogspot.com/2013/02/movie-review-coach-of-year.html Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A hilarious (but not intended that way) after school special of a movie. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Melodramatic television made rubbish. It means well, but it is poorly constructed, overacted and it just doesn?t ring true. The direction is sloppy and poor, and the film drags on and on. Not once was I convinced by any of it. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member 38/100. Melodramatic television made rubbish. It means well, but it is poorly constructed, overacted and it just doesn't ring true. The direction is sloppy and poor, and the film drags on and on. Not once was I convinced by any of it. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A sports film about a coach who takes on a job at a correctional facility. He has a nephew there as well and he tries to earn the respect of the inmates. Of course it all works out in the end but the fact is it is not a bad movie and it makes a believable story. The film isn't flashy but more of a drama and I remember just getting it because the VHS cover looked fake. It was because that is not the guy. It looks like some person got together a bunch of people and a guy in a wheelchair. I decided to watch it again and got the DVD off Netflix. Wow beside the DVD having some random jumpy moments it has one of the most random special features I have seen. First off a DVD dictionary of all the keywords about film. An 8 minute cartoon featuring Casper. And a Movie Trivia question that says you are a smart person and/or that you have too much time on your hand. Anyway besides the DVD stuff which has nothing to do with the actual movie I still think it is a good movie and Robert Conrad does a good job as the coach. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a great inspirational movie, great performance by Robert Conrad too.
