Review of Edge of America (2003) by Claire B — 15 Aug 2009

I really enjoyed this film, although the cover doesn't do anything to entice viewers. Eddie Spears' amazing stank face was present and accounted for as usual (and I love it). This movie is about a really terrible highschool basketball team that gets a new coach who turns everything around for them, sending the team to the state championship.

Of course, its mainly a character driven story but it did have my heart pounding in suspense at the end. As is common in Native films, it really would have benefited from a bigger budget and some tweaks to the script and casting, but for the most part, they got it right, and that's what makes it worth watching.
