Not a long post here. Just a quick review of the 21st century version of The Bad News Bears. From the post title, I'm sure you can gleen my opinion. The movie (which my children did not see...thank heaven) was simply a remake of the original, set in present time. How painfully authentic...kids curse each other and adults constantly, unsportsmanlike conduct is cheered and unhealthy relationships abound. How sad. On the other hand...cudos on the casting of Billy Bob Thornton as Coach!
