Little more than a morale-boosting afternoon television sports drama with some Maori battle chants thrown in for good measure; this is a coming of age flick that checks off a laundry list of clichés like counting sheep.

Clueless rugby star Rick (Sean Faris) drinks, drives, and crashes his car — nearly killing his girlfriend.

A juvenile detention sentence puts the Tom Cruise look-alike on a super disciplined Rugby regimen under taskmaster Coach Gelwix (Gary Cole), where the problem teen gradually learns a code of ethics to help stabilize his testosterone-fuelled existence.

The ten people that see this movie will have forgotten it a week later.

Rated PG-13. 112 mins.
