jantonini00741 So this movie is very un-known, and from the mid 90's so I feel strange reviewing it now. However I feel so strongly about this that I must. This movie was alright. Definitely some laughs here and there, but it seemed pretty low budget, and at times the acting was poor. Having said that it was enjoyable up until the end. I am a Boston Celtics fan (that is why I watched this movie) and just an over all sports fan, and I know you can not lie to your self about the team you are rooting for while watching a game. The fact that they were genuinely rooting for the Jazz by the end of the movie just seemed stupid and un-realistic. This is how the movie should have went in my opinion. Damon Wayans should have been the straight up bad guy throughout the film. They became like friends in the end, but there really was no reason to. They had a few moments of connection while he was being held, but not really enough to start a friend ship. So Mike and Jimmy should have come to the game rooting for the Jazz, but then realized they had to much Celtic Pride (it's the name of the movie) and cheered the Celtics. The only reason they didn't was because they were gonna go to jail which was kinda selfish. These two die hard fans should have cheered on the Celtics, the Celtics should have won, and they should have gone to jail. However the jail would be all fun and rowdy because it is a bunch of Bostonians pumped about the Celtics. Mike and Jimmy would be considered heroes amongst the inmates for what they did.

davorinlonac I go for the Milwalkie Bucks myself but I used to go for the Celtics... Welcome to my review on a very underrated movie. Celtic Pride was released in the fun year of 1996. It stars Daniel Stern, Dan Akroyd and Damon Wayons. Now, Daniel Stern is an extraordinarily funny actor and a great one in retrospective. Dan Akroyd is also an awesome actor who actually signed my DVD of this film when he was on a world tour. The film is very funny and the comedic acting is legendary. I think anyone who's seen this film probably disagrees with the 5.1. I rate this film a 7.2 for its memorable style and character which is hard to find in movies these days. I definitely recommend having this film in your collection as you can watch it over and over again. Click if this review was useful to you if you go for the Milwalkie Bucks. If not that, I go for the Green bay Packers in the N.F.L, San Jose Sharks in the N.H.L and mildly follow the A.F.L, my team there are the Fremantle Dockers... And so, be sure to check out my upcoming reviews for anticipated films like The Amazing Spiderman 2, Godzilla, X Men IV, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, The Hobbit part 3 and more!

gatorkid012 ***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** This movie was great. A summary on it would be this: Michael O'Hara(Daniel Stern) and Jimmy Fleherty(Dan Akroyd) are two diehard basketball fans who would do anything to make their Celtics win. One player on the jazz's team Lewis Scott(Damon Wayans) litterallly single handidly tore up the Celtics in the first game. Michael and Jimmy did't actually kidnap Scott. They all got wasted and then they were at Jimmy's crib and Scott was ductaped to the bed. Scott makes some good wisecracks and finally he was let loose. In order, for O'Hara and Flerahty not to go to jail, they had to root for the Jazz. At the end of the game, these two Celtics fans, I think, Actually rooted for the Jazz.

jackpurvin dan aykroyd great as crazed,fanatical celtic fan, teams up with his celtic fan partner daniel stern(of home alone fame). both are crazy,funny, and natural. damon wayans adds to the cast as utah jazz basketball player. street smart comedic wayans(from brooklyn) is just right for the part. deion sanders is great as himself.movie is very entertaining and was underrated. better than the critics said.
