Little Giants
For everyone who's waited to be chosen, and wasn't... your day has come.
Urbania, Ohio is home to the O'Shea brothers, Danny (Rick Moranis) and Kevin (Ed O'Neill). Ex-football star Kevin's name is on the town water tower. The phonebook is about the only place you'll find Danny's name. Year after year, his brother's successes loom over Danny like that water tower. but when Coach Kevin cuts Danny's child "Icebox" from the Pee-Wee football team, Danny isn't taking it anymore.
Suit up for this warmly funny tale of brotherly love on trial and fatherly love in action. Unfairly axed, Becky "Icebox" O'Shea (Shawna Waldron) organizes her misfit pals into a rival squad and recruits a coach: good ol' Dad! Will these Little Giants pull off a gridiron miracle? This comic crowd-pleaser proves heroes come in all sizes!

Good but kind of predictable; kids will like it - Fudgeflaps
This movie wasn't too bad, but I found it rather predictable. It was pretty obvious how it was going to end.
But I was able to sit through it which is more than I can say for a lot of movies.
The biggest flaw other than predictability is the handling of Shawna Waldron's character, Becky or Icebox as they called her. They didn't go into enough depth with her or weave her deep enough into the story. I feel like they couldn't make up their mind whether she was to be a minor or major character in the movie.I'll show you intimidation! - AandW
The plot is familiar... A team of castaways challages the unbeatable team. Moranis and O'Neil play brothers who coach to teams that are complete opposites. Like their respective teams, O'Neil is a local football hero and Moranis is a nerd. Can the underdogs beat the unbeatable team? This movie is very cute and funny. It's definately a movie that I can watch over and over.
