What critics compared National Champions to
Akin to the rich complexities of 2011’s analytical baseball film Moneyball , National Champions reflects a strong understanding of its subject matter and its underlying nuances.
This may explain the recent rise in sports movies that spend more time in conference rooms than on the field: Moneyball , Draft Day , High Flying Bird , Concussion , etc. Debate, controversy, and pontification has become a big part of what the sports entertainment business is all about.
