What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

I liked it and I watched it right after my favorite NFL team lost their home opener of this year (2017). Ironic for me to end up watching a movie about the NFL after I decided to leave the NFL for good due to my team's inability to remain true to themselves and me. Goodbye NFL....not loyal to me, not loyal to you...reap what you sow!

I really liked this film. I am a child of the 70s so I really like the music and how they moved the story along so passionately .. Walburg gives his best performance in this movie and he looked awesome to boot. It's great to see a small town guy able to make it big when his life is falling apart . It was a tear jerker at times but overall great movie in my eyes .. If you like football and who doesn't . you have to see this movie. Being that it's based on a true story it make's it even more interesting. I like the fact that all the actors in it , seem like there small town but it's really philly It's great to watch before football season starts :)

I like Mark Wahlberg in some movies, others I think he is just okay. In this one, I thought he was just great. he plays a truly likable former high school football player (who never played in college), but still hits the "gridiron" in pick up games in South Philly in the late 1970s. He's lost his job as a high school teacher and his wife left him, leaving a note that he will never go anywhere in life. Well, things change rather quickly when Dick Vermil (played strongly by Greg Kinear) takes over for the desperate, losing Philadelphia Eagles. Vermil decides to give walk-on tryouts to Philadelphia natives, as a publicity stunt. One person gets called to camp, and that's Wahlberg's character. This is a definite inspirational story, which is based on a true story, where the guy actually makes the team. Wahlberg's character has speed, intensity, passion, and will, and he becomes a special teams expert, playing 3 or 4 years in the NFL. Only downside,as I have learned in many of these "biographical" movies, is that while it was close to the truth, there were many things in the movie that turned out to be just plain false. but if you're watching Invincible as just a movie, and not a biography, then this is great one, which didn't get the critical reviews it deserves.

The movies backdrop was football. Yet this movie really wasn't a football movie nor really a sport movie so it shouldn't be summarized based upon that fact. The story really is centered about a down and out guy named Vince, who seems to not have anything really going for him after losing his job and marriage. The only glue in Vinces sanity to keep him going is friends and brother and also their love for the NFLs Eagles in Philly. With great luck he as well as the city gets a chance to try out for the beloved team. So the story goes on with character build up making you feel sympathy for the guy and in that sorrow you start rooting for him to do well with the team. Its a classic underdog story, even to the understanding that the underdog will triumph at the end. I must say though that after further research on the real story, certain liberties were taken with the film but that is to keep the movie flowing and to entertain the audience. Even though this movie does not garner any awards its a good film to enjoy again.
