Forever Strong Trailers

Rick Penning lives life just like he plays rugby; fast, hard-hitting and intense. When life on the edge lands him in jail, prison ward Marcus Tate offers him a chance to get back in the game by playing for his rival, Highland Rugby. Reluctantly Rick joins the team where he must adopt the grueling training schedule that Coach Gelwix enforces, or finish out the season behind bars.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Forever Strong starts off good, but then it falls into a pit of sports movie clichés and isn't able to climb back out of it. This is a well-crafted movie with good acting, it just has a weak story that we've all seen a dozen times. It also tries very hard to make rugby seem cool and important, but I get the feeling that only rugby fans will buy into that. I wanted to like it, but this movie bored me.

This movie was great. I loved the plot and the idea of this film. I would recommend for any person and athletes, as well, to watch this film. This film really teaches you how to become a successful team mate and it shows the true colors of being a team player. I love how this film faces obstacles that any athlete in today's life could face. Athletes today face a tough world out there with influential friends leading you into drugs, alcohol, etc. This film touched on situations that any normal teenager can face today. Either drugs, alcohol, hanging around the wrong group of "friends" and even problems at home that family's can face with teens ending up in jail. What I really liked about this movie is how the main character changed his life completely around and bettered him self through the art of family and team. This shows the true colors of what a team can do for a teen. It could keep them from ending up in jail or even dead. Great ending as well, simply loved how it showed how the team completely bettered him into becoming someone great and not foolish like how he was in the beginning of the film.

Look I've played AFootball,Rugby,Soccer and I know Rugby has a very distinct culture unlike any other sport. If they wanted to make a movie about culture they should have, and helped people understand the culture in Rugby better. All they wanted was a feel good American film, Rugby was the side show. It is truly unfortunate because they could of helped Americans understand an unAmerican sport at the present time. Last time Rugby was in the Olympics 15's was 1924 won by the US. We have had this sport in our culture and should respect it more then how it was portrayed in the film. (IE:Haka,Rules of the sport) Good side maybe someone will have to truly see Rugby for themselves.

Awful film. Terrible acting, cheesy, totally unrealistic, embarrassing to anyone who has played the game. For a start that guy is not a hooker, he would be snapped in two. As for ''I score, that's my job'' well no it's not. For the the uneducated American audience it might come across as a good film. For me, well, that's a few hours of my life I'll never get back. I read through the reviews and came across one where the guy sounded like he knew what he was talking about. Then I read - ''And while American rugby may never reach the level of talent that New Zealand or South Africa has, third in the world is also nothing to hang your head about''All I can say is, LMFAO! Keep playing your American football and baseball, leave the real sports to the big boys.
