We Are Marshall

Haven't seen it, don't care for Matthew McConaughey.
But I'm open to reviews.
Anyone watch?  You all avoided the Eagle Vince Papale movie.

Haven't seen it but they had a big article in last Sunday paper.  Mike D'Antoni was a sophomore and his brother was an asst bball coach at Marshall when the accident happened.  They were housesitting/babysitting 4 kids whose parents died on that flight.  Mike says his brother still cannot talk about that time in their lives.
It riles them to believe that you perceive the web they weave.  Keep on thinking free.

Are you kidding?!?!  He's great in Dazed and Confused!  Of course, I think that's the only movie of his I've ever seen so I can't really comment beyond that. 

That story is so powerful in itself.  From all I've read and seen it looks like they've done a good job telling the story.  I'll bet it's a good movie, but I'll probably wait for it to drop on cable.  I rarely get motivated to see movies these days ... there's so much crap out there.
