Top CriticWhile it's not a classic high school basketball film such as Hoosiers (1986), Believe In Me tugs at the heartstrings with vigor.
03/23/07
Collector can't resist a few cloying, motivational speeches from time to time, but overall, he comes in nicely under the radar.
03/22/07
Inspiration in Believe in Me comes early and often, and writer/director Collector never misses an opportunity for a heartfelt locker-room speech or joyful practice-session musical montage to tug at viewers' heartstrings.

You will find it an evening well spent, uplifting with a lot of heartfelt feelings.
03/15/07
Whether based on fact or not, now is not the time for yet another feel good sports movie about a small town coach who battles against local public perception to take his team of misfits to the championships.
03/11/07
Sincere, but insufferably dull.
03/09/07
What the inspirational sports drama Believe in Me might lack in freshness, it nicely compensates for in heartfelt, winning conviction and spirited performances.
