The best sports movies are the ones that aren't really about sports at all. Moneyball wasn't inherently a baseball film, nor was King Richard truly about tennis. Rocky was more than just a boxing flick and Remember the Titans was never just about gridiron.

Reshoots and script rewrites saw Justice...

Too often people share their initial reaction, be it positive or negative. I'm not saying that's wrong. Sometimes your gut reaction is spot on. But with so much crammed into one film (more on that later), it's impossible to really know how one felt without proper time for reflection. Now I've seen...
