  Hoosiers is one of the finest sports dramas that have ever been made. The film managed to set the standard for all to follow. I've seen my fair share of sports films, and Hoosiers ranks among the essential films to watch. The film has a simply story, yet has plenty of heart to really make it a standout feature that boasts a great cast of actors headed by Gene Hackman. The film is engaging from start to finish. Hoosiers for me is one of the better films dealing the sport of Basketball. There has been other films tackling the sport, but none has had the power of capturing your attention that Hoosiers. The film, I thought wasn't clichéd, unlike every recent genre film. I much prefer this subtle Sports film due to the fact that it doesn't overdo anything. Hoosiers is a well constructed drama that will surely appeal to genre fans, and if you're skeptical about seeing this due to that fact that there have been countless films of the same nature in recent years, well be prepared to enjoy this film as it is a well acted, directed movie that tells a terrific story. Even if you're not a fan of the sport, this is worth seeing due to the cast, its story and its heart. Filmgoers will surely love this movie, and it still is a genre classic that has yet to be outdone. If you love a good, well structured drama, Hoosiers is the film for you. Hackman is terrific in his performance and it adds so much to the overall enjoyment of movie. Hoosiers is a terrific Sports film than anyone can enjoy no matter if you follow the sport or not.

  Hoosiers is an excellent underdog film and is among on of the greatest sports films i've ever seen. Gene Hackman is greatly casted as the lead and all supporting actors/actresses (Dennis Hopper, Sheb Wooley etc.) add more to the movie. Although this film may be cliched, you can't help but love Hoosiers. Favorite Scene: I bet like many other people, the last 10 seconds of the finals game

  What an awesome movie. A classic film, not just about basketball, but about redemption. Hoosiers is a great watch even if you don't like basketball, or even if you hate sports in general. Either way, watch this movie!
