Based on the true story of a probation officer who turns a group of hardcore teen felons into a football team, Gridiron Gang sends out a message that one man can make a difference and the most hopeless kids in our society can change the course of their lives through hard work, commitment and bold leadership.

Sean Porter is a frustrated juvenile probation officer. Most of the kids in his detention camp are either sent back to prison once they leave or meet a violent end when they return to the streets. Desperately looking for a way to make a difference, he and his co-worker Malcolm Moore devise a plan to teach discipline and responsibility through the game of football. Confronted by gang rivalries and bitter hatred between his teammates, Porter teaches some hard lessons (and learns a few himself) as the kids gain a sense of self-respect and responsibility. But with only four weeks before the start of the season, Porter must overcome insurmountable odds to put together a competitive team. He must also overcome almost universal resistance from the powers that be – his skeptical bosses and coaches at rival high schools – who don’t want their players mixing it up with convicted criminals on the football field. It's a season that will test their minds, spirit, and bodies as Porter teaches his players the principles of good character, strength through resiliency, and genuine respect for one another. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Alvin "Xzibit" Joiner star in this gritty and inspirational movie based on a true story of a group of teenage delinquents given a second chance to redeem themselves by playing football.

75% of juvenile inmates return to prison or meet with violent ends on the streets.

The movie does show realities of prison reform that you won't get from other mainstream movies, including the steps that lead to recidivism and the importance of positive role models waiting outside the prison walls. — Peter Hartlaub, San Francisco Chronicle

Outstanding! A stand up and cheer classic! The Rock has never been better. — Shawn Edwards, Fox-TV

Gridiron Gang In Gridiron Gang, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson once again displays far more cinematic charisma than one could expect from a former professional wrestler. Sean Porter, a football player turned juvenile detention counselor, wrestles with a seemingly insolvable problem: The vast majority of young men who leave detention fall right back into crime. Seeking a way to give these not-yet-hardened kids a taste of self-esteem and discipline, Porter persuades his superiors to let him teach the kids football — and then take on high school teams. Though based on a true story, Gridiron Gang is pure underdogs-overcome-adversity formula. A formula is not necessarily a bad thing; when executed with skill and commitment, fulfilling a classic story mechanism can be perfectly satisfying, and Gridiron Gang qualifies. But it's Johnson who carries it through, demonstrating — in the most unlikely of roles — a surprisingly gentle touch. USA UK Canada
