Movie Reviews of Remember the Titans (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: "Remeber the Titans"
Summary: 5 Stars
Based on actual events Remember the Titans is a heart warming good for the whole family film. Set in Virginia, in 1971, high school football was everything to the people of Alexandria. The town's unity was put to test when the school board was forced to integrate, T.C. Williams High with an all black school. The values and foundations of the championship football team were suddenly interrupted when black coach from South Carolina Herman Boone (Denzel Washington) was brought up to take the place of white head coach Bill Yoast (Will Patton), who is the towns pride and joy in leading the team to several state championships. With tensions thick and the steaks high, the school board has put the pressure on Boone to win every game. The coaches must put their differences behind them and force the boys to become one. Together the team must work together and triumph with courage and spirit to win and bring together a town that has been torn apart by prejudice and bias.
I must say that this is by far one of my favorite movies. It has everything that you could ever want in a story line. Not only is the script well written it is apart of our history and shows the triumph of what our country once had to overcome. It portrays the racial prejudice that occurred during that time perfectly and shows the hardships that people went through dealing with a world full of narrow-minded people. The football team was forced to become a whole and work together as a team putting their differences to rest no matter what the town thought about it.
The whole plot line revolves around this championship football team. Once an all white team now integrated with blacks, have to come together as one in order to win football games. The best part of the film is when the team all bonds as one in camp. At first resisting any type of involvement with the other race except for on the field, and then slowly seeing the brighter side of things. Then head coach Herman Boone rises to the occasion in forcing the boys to relate to each other and learn about one another, not only becoming great friends but playing as an actual team as well. Their trust in each other is tested once they return to school from camp when the whole town is fighting against the integration of the schools. While you sit and watch each game they play you will be sure to get the chills as you watch a team go through their ups and downs. Will they keep it together and be able to lead the team to another championship and make the people of Alexandria come to their senses or will they crumble under the pressures of society?
Although there are not a lot of well known actors in this film, you really don't notice it. Denzel Washington as Herman Boone was simply amazing, like always, he gave a compelling performance. He plays the part of head coach with such ease and composure yet stoic and stern. A perfect man for a football coach dealing with the issues of society while trying to win football games. He is really an amazing actor. Playing assistant coach Will Patton as Bill Yoast who is the other known actor in this movie, also gives a great performance, complementing Washington. Both together are a perfect pair, and are the perfect asset to this wonderful script.
All together Remember the Titans is a wonderful movie filled with passion and desire. It will surely bring you laughter, tears of sadness, and tears of joy, making you want to watch it again and again. Perfect for the whole family, Remember the Titans is definitely at the top of my list and will hopefully soon be at the top of yours.
