Review of The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977) by Ryan D — 10 Aug 2008

Alot of people like the original better and I can respect that but this is my favorite Bad News Bears movie. They fire their new coach, bribe the slow groundskeeper to pose as their coach and chaperone for their parents, and drive to Houston in a stolen van unattended to play a bunch of rednecks in a sanctioned exhibition championship game in the Astrodome and its all sponsored by Budweiser.

My favorite character is Tanner Boyle and his wonderful politically incorrect late 70's mouth. William Devane plays Kelly's estranged father who agrees to coach the team. The original is good, this ones great, dont bother with Japan, and forget they ever did a remake.
