A pleasant surprise

A bit simplistic and predictable, perhaps but interesting and entertaining with very good performances. This film unfortunately has received almost no publicity as far as I can tell. Well worth seeing
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Good characters, good acting, a lot of amusing bits (not belly laughs but fun), plot is predictable but still fun. I never knew about existence of City Island so that was cool.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Would be too predictable and a bit hokie except it's a true, and truly inspirational story. The dismay and fear of white South Africans over President Mandela reminded me of American conservatives over Obama's election. If only Obama could find his equivalent of Springboks & World Cup to work the magic of reconciliation. The transition happens more quickly and easily than in real life, but that's Hollywood. Damon & Freeman both excellent. (kudos to Damon on nailing the accent). Rugby scenes are good fun -- rugby players are clearly insane. The big myster yis why there aren't at serious casualties at every match.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
