Undefeated (2011)
7/10
Ya gotta love football to love this one....and apparently the Oscar folks love football.

This film is about a football program at a high school with a long tradition of losing. Despite having been around for over a hundred years, they've never won a playoff game and recently went entire seasons without a win. This film follows their much more successful coach and the team through the course of a season and you see the team's ups and downs.

"Undefeated" is a decent sports documentary and is worth seeing if you like this sort of thing. Oddly, however, after I watched it I learned that the film won the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature....and I am not really sure why. It's good, but ESPN makes a lot of documentaries that are as good or better. I guess I just am not the target audience or the Oscar folks saw something in it that I just didn't see.
