Review of Necessary Roughness (1991) by Roger Ebert for Chicago Sun-Times — 17 Jul 2013
I’ve seen versions of the plot of “Necessary Roughness” in almost every other movie ever made about an underdog sports team - but I fell for it again this time, because it was well done, and because the movie doesn’t try to pump itself up into more than it is, a good-humored entertainment.
