Reviewer Rating Review
Jim Carrier86 - Excellent sports movie. It's actually one of my favorites. Sam did a phenominal job as a coach that takes over an inner-city basketball team that nobody believes in.
Lisa Marie Bowman70 - Perhaps the best thing about Coach Carter is that it gives Jackson a chance to show what he is truly capable of doing as an actor.
