Gridiron Gang is a 2006 American biographical sports drama film directed by Phil Joanou, and starring Dwayne Johnson, Xzibit, L. Scott Caldwell and Kevin Dunn. It is loosely based on the true story of the Kilpatrick Mustangs during the 1990 season.
A counselor (The Rock) at a juvenile detention facility decides to turn the young inmates in his charge into a football team to give them a sense of self-respect and social responsibility, but he faces opposition from high-school coaches who do not want their players facing criminals on the field.
BlackBusters is a podcast focused on reviewing, celebrating, re-living and critiquing Black film. From the movies we all know and love to those hidden gems, there is no movie too big or small to be praised or roasted.
Join our hosts Director/Comedian/Actor ‪@biggjah‬ and movie/podcast connoisseur Tony Price as they explore the legacy, impact and influence of Black cinema.

[@therealmarlonbellamy]

I liked this movie and i haven’t watched it in a minute. Can we please get Blackbusters on the following movies: Any Given Sunday Glory Road Blue Chips Hardball The Replacements

[@jaealxndr]

Hardball 👀

[@brandonkeller194]

Hardball for sure. I dont know if any given Sunday is a blockbuster? I could see reason it is and also for it not being one. But Hardball and Glory Road I would love to see them do

[@datdude1021]

Hardball is a good one

[@keenanmadison7496]

Willie was young Jesus on He got game

[@newzay50]

And he was in that movie pride wit bernie and terrence howard

[@gifi11]

​@@newzay50they should review "Pride". That movie is sooooo underrated

[@trayanderson3654]

The Mexican guy on the team was actually someone who was really from camp Kilpatrick during the time frame which the movie was based off of which is why he got a lot of screen time

[@ThomasR-b1x]

We need an age limit when using the word "Pause"

[@jonnykilroy9762]

A real classic cable movie. If I catch this in the early parts I'm stopping and watchin. Still don't know why the cat playin Willie didn't get more after this. Like yall said this character required him to give a lot and he delivered

[@sirvant1369]

I appreciate the pod cast of reviewing movies the brothers are doing they break it down on a real level! 💯

[@kenbrown88]

“I cant even do this right” man that hit

[@doubleF20]

Yall gotta do "Prison Song" next. Under appreciated classic w q tip and Mary j

[@91Definite]

Prison Song is too good it should’ve been in theaters. Good but tragic movie

[@ThomasR-b1x]

Any Given Sunday and Remember the Titans 🏈 #TheBlackBusters #MovieReview

[@copaseticarts9067]

This movie was always good, seen it in theaters cause my grandma was a counselor & had a program for foster kids that i would go to with her on Saturdays.. they needed them kids to learn the lessons in that movie !

[@t-god2439]

I swore for the longest that Trey songz was in this movie 😂

[@newzay50]

Naw he played the lil jesus shuttlesworth in he got game

[@brandonkeller194]

😂😂

[@lamontwhite2433]

wats good Jah! Keep up the 🔥 content. Y’all gotta review “KRUSH GROOVE” soon

[@gqmichaels]

Hardball is a good movie they should do

[@marquishaile8]

I like when west coast ghost saw Calvin in the hallway acting like he about to pull a gun out. Then they was doing sign languages

[@DDT61586]

Los YAMgeles

[@tiffanyhughes7962]

I need episodes on Players Club, Shottas, BAPS, CB4, How to be a Player, Takers, the original Sparkle,

[@heavybre]

WWFD: Fresh would've framed his step-dad for some bullshit charge or set him up to get smoked by some dude in the neighborhood. Mom's would be heartbroken, but at least he wouldn't have done jail time thats for true.

[@gifi11]

This is actually a great movie. The N world def came up way more in high school football. You play them corn fed white schools, them white boys dont be scared lol Willie was the MVP easily. His acting was out this world.

[@Joe.Brown2120]

Mad Lock put out Junior in practice not Kelvin.

[@jeremiahlawson6575]

Tone is always calling something clunky

[@dallastexas5653]

I know I’ve seen this movie but I don’t remember any of it.

[@kraeshard]

Can you guys zoom me in on a review, not a film maker, but a movie guy.

[@vision176]

That stab comment makes me not watch the movie anymore

[@hatethegamejackson1923]

The rock is a buff Kevin hart: super marketable good guy but all his movies at best are decent

[@Mr.Jones41]
