Drumline (2002), directed by Charles Stone III

watched w/ Leslie; DVD rental (Netflix) @ home

Is it bad that I liked this movie. Perhaps. So sue me. It was the typical story of hard to teach kid w/ tons of talent, winning the girl & the limelight...but with percussion! It's fun to see marching bands throw down. I also like the simple fact that it's of a subject matter that doesn't get much Hollywood play, but in a very Hollywood way.

3 out of 5 stars
