Glory Road is a traditional Disney-style movie, although inaccuracies are clearly depicted. As seen by Voight's portrayal of Adolph Rupp as the ultimate racist and Confederate flags flying in the stands, the movie portrays the University of Kentucky unfairly. Most teams... Full review

With that explosive cultural background--and with a deep cast headed by Josh Lucas as Haskins, Jon Voight as Rupp and Derek Luke as Texas Western's star guard Bobby Joe Hill --"Glory Road" seizes your emotions, fills you with feeling generated as much by the true-life story as the way it has been dramatized. ...

There's a scene in "Glory Road" where black students at the University of Kentucky are huddled around a television set in a dorm room, secretly rooting for the Wildcats' opponent to win the NCAA Division-I championship game.
First-time director James Gartner enlisted some actors with roundball experience, which adds to the realism.

If you are a fan of "feel good" movies, you can't do much better than this (well, except for "RUDY" which is the greatest sports film ever).
Part fact, part Hollywood, altogether enjoyable, "Glory Road" is the true story of Coach Don Haskins and his astounding win.
