THE COMEBACK NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE THE COMEBACKS FROM IMDB.

• Coach Fields (David Koechner) is pathetic. He has the distinction of being the worst coach in the history of sports anyone can recall. A loser of enormous proportions, the incompetent and seemingly hopeless coach is convinced by fellow coach Freddie Wiseman (Carl Weathers) to return to the field for one last shot. Assuring his long suffering wife (Melora Hardin) that he will not ignore his family, Coach moves them to Plainfolk, Texas where he hopes to redeem himself and his reputation. Here he begins yet another attempt to improve his abysmal record - this time as the coach of the football team at Heartland State University. But he is saddled with a team of misfits - most of whom don't know the difference between a line of scrimmage and a line at the cafeteria. Coach is in serious need of some real talent to beef up his line-up and finds his number one recruit on the university's baseball diamond. The ever-so-handsome Lance Truman (Matthew Lawrence) brings with him a distinguished award winning career - albeit for the most dropped balls - as well as determination.

• Coach convinces Truman to join the team as quarterback, and the young athlete comes on board despite the objection of his father (Nick Searcy). Wearing jersey #1 is Trotter (Jackie Long), the bling-wearing, girl magnet wide receiver who can actually catch and run with the ball, as long as his oversized ego does not get in the way. The biggest bruiser of the team is Buddy Boy (George Back), but he turns out to be more warm and cuddly than the mean sonofabitch that Coach longs for. The rest of the team includes the upbeat and handsome, Aseel Tare (Robert Ri'chard), who is always ready for action despite an uncanny tendency for injury; tattooed and angry Jorge Juanson (Jesse Garcia) who has a chip on his shoulder, and the delusion of being from the barrio; Jizminder (Noureen DeWulf), a beautiful, British-Indian soccer player, who takes on the role of kicker and is the only female player on the otherwise all male squad; and lastly, is the runt of the group, Randy (Martin Spanjers), who is always begging for a chance to play despite his miniscule stature, and lack of any discernable football skills...unless you count moxie. Serving as Coach's right hand man is IPod (Jermaine Williams), although he is often misunderstood, the good-hearted, music listening IPod keeps the team smiling.

• Although the team and townsfolk are leery of the newcomer's approach, the Coach uses his unorthodox methods to whip this group of rag-tags into shape - both on and off the field. While the audience follows their winding road to the playoffs, the film pokes fun at the clichés and conventions of other sports flicks. And the team does make progress, so much so that they actually make it to the South-Southwest Conference Championship at the 2nd Annual Toilet Bowl. Facing their fiercest opponents yet and yearning to win the big game, The Comebacks face off with the Lone Star State Unbeatables.

• And as every great sports team has always done, The Comebacks use ingenuity and unorthodox measures in the final showdown where the best team wins. Written by Fox Atomic

HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE THE COMEBACKS FROM DVDTALK

• Emboldened by their alarming success with "Date Movie" and "Epic Movie," 20th Century Fox has ordered up another round of lampooning that doesn't send-up its targets as much as it tweaks, ever so slightly, established buffoonery. The bottom line is, "The Comebacks" is a loathsome filmgoing experience, created by the brain-dead for the brain-dead.

• After decades of coaching travesties, Lambeau Fields (David Koechner) has been offered a football slot at Heartland University. Assembling a ragtag group of kids to play for him, Fields takes the squad and teaches them the basics of inspirational sports movies, along with the requirements that their grades must be atrocious and their drinking out of control. Spending the season trying to shape these losers into a winning team, Lambeau finds his greatest challenge is to beat his old assistant coach (Carl Weathers) at the 2nd Annual Toilet Bowl.

• Full disclosure: I was the guy who liked director Tom Brady's previous feature film, "The Hot Chick." I'm not proud of it, but there was something sinister and astute in the way "Chick" broke down the absurdity of the female teenage years. I wasn't expecting Brady to follow-up "Chick" with this monstrosity of spoof; a gluttonous, lazy collection of lifeless callbacks and uneventful sight gags, parodying films that were already skating on the thin ice of legitimacy.

• Unlike most of this new trend of pea-brain, dime-store lampoons, there's not one overall picture "Comebacks" is riffing from. Instead, the feature cherry picks its targets from all over the cinematic map. There's a little "Radio" to be found in the character of iPod (try to guess what they call his specialty dance!), some "Friday Night Lights" in the fringes of verbally abusive, cross-dressing football fathers, a huge lift from "Stick It" (going against the established rule that films satirized should be pictures people have actually seen), and assorted nuggets from "Field of Dreams," "Rocky Balboa," "Invincible," "Miracle," and "Dodgeball."

• Strangely, Brady isn't always convinced his audience is grasping the target, so he'll have one of the characters state the name of the movie in their dialogue ("Don't go all 'Blue Crush' on me," "This is my 'Gridiron Gang'"), presumably for the younger viewers who will be the majority to actually pay to see this garbage.

• Not convinced "Comebacks" is witless, charmless, laugh-free creation? Check this comedy cameo list out: Andy Dick, Bradley Cooper, Will Arnett, Dax Shepard, Eric Christian Olsen, Finesse Mitchell, Drew Lachey, Stacey Keibler, and Frank Caliendo (doing his tired John Madden impression for umpteenth time). Wow. It's like a who's who of the dreadfully unfunny.

• Still not convinced? Brady calls in Dennis Rodman to appear as Lambeau's basketball-dominating prison warden. I think the child sitting behind me put it best when he turned to his parent and asked, "Who's that, mommy?"

• Toss in a teeth-grinding non sequitur musical number set to Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'," a couple of bus-speeding-through-the-frame-and-striking-a-character gags, various moments of Koechner with a strange flop-sweat look on his face as though he knows he's in the middle of a career-ending turkey, not one, but two jokes about the Duke University lacrosse team, and voila! You have one of the worst excuses for a mainstream comedy to be found this year.
