    I haven't seen to many "Christian" faith based films,But this one is amazing.A truly inspiring story of a High school Football coach on the verge of pretty much losing everything.Very Inspiring,although the actors are not ones you will recognize and it doesn't have the big razzle dazzle Hollywood budget,the story is stand alone,Intense at times and sometimes you will even cry,Excellent football flick,Check this one out!! =)

    My crazy school teachers used to play this movie all over again. I don't know how but I always get myself trapped under the circumstances and watch it again. Actually this is one sentimental Christian movie. But those stupid actings are clearly unforgivable. I had enough mocking this film with my fellow friend Marv. Personally, I don't like it. But if you're looking for something that touch you in the deep places, this is the movie for you.

    Those that know me know that I am not an extremely religious person, and that I normally skip movies with a lot of religious overtones.

    That being said, I watched this flick with a friend, and it has become one fo my favorite films.

    It is a VERY inspirational flick, with a great message, and suprisingly good acting. If you have not seen it yet go buy/rent it today.

    I thought that this was a movie about fotball, but clearly it's a movie about christianity, and the movie should be named "How to find God in a fotball" and not "Facing the Giants"

    The only ones that can like this movies is hardcore christians, becouse if you watch this movie becouse of the fotball, your realy should get your head checkeout. Watch a good fotball movie as "Remeber the Titans"

    Now days, I get scared when I hear the name "Alex Kendrick" or just "Kendrick"

    I recommend all to avoid this movie

    this was BAD! as im not a christian and not an american i didnt enjoy it at all, this one really sucked!

    I mean all the students went out of the classrooms as they found God and starting to cry and hug each other. That says alot!

    This has to be hands down one of the best movies that shows how God works in our lives if we allow him to! No matter the Giants we face either on the football field or in life, we will prevail! I love how this movie showed their faith and how it worked and how the coach inspired it in others! :)
