  The fact that this is based on a true story does not make it a game-changer in terms of the inspirational, economically-challenged, overcoming-all-odds, ethnic subculture movie genre. It's basically the movie you expect to see from Costner - he owns these movies, and rightly so - he's good at them. I go to see them because of that. It was a good night out and a great story.

  What an amazing movie!!! I can't remember the last time I was that caught up when watching a movie that I clapped during the movie or laughed and cried at the same time. I was so caught up in the movie that I felt like I had a personal stake in their success. Definitely will see again!!!

  When I read the initial information about McFarland, I was not sure if I would like the film. I knew it was a Disney production and as such I knew that the film would adhere to some higher standards.

It seems to be an area where he is comfortable and it shows in this movie too. His acting was solid and believable. The cast was mostly unknowns in the Western culture. The only other main character was Maria Bello of Coyote Ugly fame. This is what actually made the movie for me. The characters were all

  My Husband and myself found the movie to be very moving and inspirational. It was nice to get a glimpse into the Hispanic lifestyle. To see how they all came together to help each other and how they accepted Coach "Blanco" and his family. We all have problems but they gave us a glimpse into the hard working lifestyle of the "pickers" and how with dedication, determination and guidance there is always hope. We are all the same despite what nationality we are. Even Kevin Costner himself and his family had issues to overcome. I really enjoyed meeting and learning what the real life people that the movie was about are doing today. I would recommend and see the movie again. Thanks for the ch

  McFarland was a wonderful family movie. I wasn't sure if I would enjoy this film but it really got to me. The characters came across as real, with their own flaws. I understand it was based on a true story which made it even more enjoyable - to understand these kids had to overcome such odds. It was an excellent film that both myself and 10 year old son enjoyed and will see again with rest of my family.
