The Final Season, Not Really Very Good

The Final Season

Just watched The Final Season and I have to admit that it wasn’t very good at all. Which is a shame because we grew up w/ Sean Astin and I really like a lot of stuff he did in the past. In fact, when I went to see Grease, starring Rosie O’Donnell , w/ my wife and son at the Ford Theatre in Washington, DC , he was there w/ a few other celebs. That was the night that President Clinton and Chelsea were there to see the show also! In addition, Don and Mike, local DJ’s were in attendance. It was a star studded event I would say!

Roanne

I also have to worship him a bit, because when he was doing teen movies back in the day when I was way way younger, he had a last scene where he woke up w/ a nekkit woman. That was Roanne, a girl that used to date Brian from Child’s play and hang out in the Baltimore/Washington club scene that we were so intricately involved in. Obviously, we were all jealous of him at that time!

Boring

Anyway, sorry about that, I know this is a family forum. The move dragged on way to much, didn’t really ever get going and the climax of winning the final championship wasn’t really even enough to keep my attention. This is a great story about a small high school in Iowa that had only 100+ students, yet won 20 straight state championships! How did they do it? Fundamentals according to the coach in the movie.

A story so great could have been told so much better. This is no Bull Durham , that’s for sure!

Anyway, if you have nothing else to do, give it a look, otherwise, skip it!

Anyone else see this movie? Let me know what you thought.
