Does Varsity Blues have anything that set it apart from others like Rudy? Well, there's a beefed-up brunette Dawson sporting a manly Texas drawl, but pretty faces aren't enough to save this sinking ship. The plotline is hackneyed--boy overcomes some personal demons and a satanic coach (John Voight) to win that one great ballgame.

Faiman's facade never cracked; her performance was seamless. She soliloquizes about smoking cigarettes--"like taking a drag off of death...
...surprise, the movie isn't over at that point--Visnjic comes back to haunt the sisters, bringing police officer Gary Hallet (Aidan Quinn) to the scene. At this point the real story begins as Bullock begins to discover that love ain't all that dangerous (spoken with sexy southern drawl, compliments of Quinn) and Kidman, having battled Visjnic on earth, takes him on in the spirit world...
