Movie Reviews of Necessary Roughness
Movie Review: "Hiatel (sorry for the spelling) Hernia! Is it fatal? Indigestion? Only in Mexico."
Summary: 5 Stars
What Major League was to baseball, Necessary Roughness is to football. This has to be one of the most underrated comedies. This stars Scott Backula (Quantum Leap, Enterprise), Sinbad, Jason Bateman, Hector Elizondo, Fred Thompson (The senator and from Die Hard 2),Kathy Ireland, Larry Miller (10 Things I Hate About You), and Robert Loggia.
The movie follows a Texas University football team. The program use to be one of the best until they were caught doing some illegal things (illegal recruiting, free passes on grades ect). The whole team except one or two get kicked off the team. Hector Elizondo was asked to rebuild and from the new recruits, it looked like it was going to be a long football season. although no one was complaining when the coaches (Robert Loggia to be exact) recruits kathy Ireland; a soccer player to be the kicker. The dean (Larry Miller) wants him and his team to fail.
All this adds up to nonstop laughter. This is worthy for anyones DVD collection. If you love comedies, this is a good one. The DVD is pretty barebones,
Summary of Necessary Roughness
Due to NCAA sanctions, the Texas State University Fightin' Armadillos must form a football team from their actual student body, with no scholarships to help, to play their football schedule. With fewer players than most teams, the makeshift team must overcome obstacles that the best teams in the country couldn't deal with. Using a 34 year old quarterback, a female place-kicker and a gang of misfits, Ed "Straight Arrow" Genero must take his team to play the number one Texas Colts.Action & Adventure DVD Video
