    There is a movie on Sky Premiere at the moment called Forever Strong about rugby that has to be strangest story ever conceived:


    A rugby player is put up in a juvenile detention center. There he plays for the Highland Rugby team and ultimately plays against his father in the National Championships.

    Highschool rugby where they perform the haka?

    After 'Titanic', probably one of the worst movies ever made

    Just watching a bit now of your man doing the haka in his jail cell. Priceless.

    Properly cringe worthy :(

    I feel ill. I can never, never, never let my children see these movies.

    So that's why Edinburgh were so rubbish over the last few years.

    This guy plays in the front row?!! He's about 11 stone.
    Worst film ever and that's saying something.

    Saw this the other night, what a load of pish.

    The main lad is the same guy that did 'Never Back Down'.

    I wonder which niche/emerging sport he's being lined up to ruin on screen next?

    Maybe a film about a troubled teen who finds his way in life after winning an underground-curling/street-cricket/illegal-extreme-triathlon tournament under the guidance of a mysterious and aloof mentor.
