My friend was on the Highland Highschool Rugby Team and he told me that most of these events are true, but a lot of them are from different years and almost no original names were used. An interview with the coach verified this. It played out with the same plot as any other sport movie. Still, it was a good movie, albiet predictable. But why is everyone upset about the Haka and the New Zealand All Blacks? Unless something was incorrect, like mispronounced words or something, I think that there should be no reason to not use a war dance to pump up for a game. And Highland dominates as much as the All Blacks do in their league.

I would have rated 3.5/5 stars, but I bumped it up because my friend was on the team. Hey, I can show a little favoritism, can't I?
