i think hometown legend be a really great movie . although it and the town be both fictional and it truly capture the feeling about football in alabama . it be life . every friday night and the whole town support their team at the high school football field and no matter how small that town be or how bad their team really be . it a great thing . i also think the religion part and especially rachel prayer in the beginning say it all . the two thing in the south your mamma teach you to believe in be god and your high school football team . everyone support their team and and football be everything . the movie show that wonderfully . it be a great movie and and really bring out the feeling of high school in a small town . yes and the accent be a little extreme and fake at some point and ( maybe i just notice it because i grow up in athens . ) but for the most part i love it . i think whether you be from the south and be never have be here and i would definitely recommend this movie to anyone .
