The true story of Vince Papale, a bartender/unemployed substitute school teacher in Philadelphia (Mark Wahlberg) who tried out for the NFL's Eagles and ended up being an integral part of Dick Vermeil's (Greg Kinnear) team for three years in the late-1970s. Typical underdog story that I have always been a sucker for and this one is no exception. Has that "Rocky" feel to it with shades of countless other inspirational sports stories from seemingly the beginning of films. It is good at capturing the intensity of Philadelphia sports fans and also excellent at showing how blue collar folks in that part of the country interact, socialize and often struggle to make a living. If nothing else, "Invincible" displays just how imperative and key that professional sports are to many within certain U.S. metropolitan areas. 4 stars out of 5.
