Paul Crewe (Adam Sandler), is an former NFL player disgraced for shaving points in a big game, getting in an argument with his rich girlfriend Lena (Courteney Cox) regarding his failure. He locks her in a closet, gets drunk, and goes joy riding in her Bentley Continental GT throughout San Diego. After completely wrecking the car, and disabling several police cruisers in the process, he gets arrested. He is found guilty of grand theft auto and is sentenced to three years in Allenville Penitentiary in Texas, as it was arranged by the prison’s warden Hazen (James Cromwell).
In prison, the warden asks Paul to help the prison guards’ football team. After being roughed up a bit, Paul (under threat of an extra 5 years in prison for blocking a guard’s baton) decides to help him. He informs the warden that what his team needs is a tune-up game: a game where they play a team and “kick the living shit out of ‘em, and get their spirits up”. This gives the warden an idea: Paul, with the help of fellow inmate Caretaker (Chris Rock), will make a team out of the inmates for them to play as their tune-up game. He starts off with a poorly organized team, before being noticed by another prisoner, former football player Nate Scarborough (Reynolds), who decides to help him by coaching the team.
Paul, Nate, and Caretaker find a rating system on the criminals (up to five stars, depending on how prone to violence they are). They all set out to find and recruit some five star inmates: linebacker Joey Battle (Goldberg); fullback Turley (Singh Rana); and at safety, Torres (Lobo Sebastian), a chain-smoking outsider who verses a drug dealer named Kayla every Friday night, when he doesn’t have practice. But after realizing their team is built on power and nastiness (primarily on defense) and there is no offensive threats on the team, Paul realizes he needs more players. Caretaker suggests that it is due to their lack of “brothers”, as they only have one currently on their team: defensive lineman Switowsky (Sapp), an unintelligent, child-like, but large strongman.At the end of the movie, he reveals he played barbie dolls with a bunch of five year olds.
They go to the black inmates and approach their leader Deacon Moss (Irvin), who declares that none of them want to play on his team because of Paul’s point-shaving history. So Paul challenges them to a 1 on 1 basketball game where if Paul wins, the men will join the team. They play basketball and call their own fouls, with Paul getting physically punished during the game. Despite Paul losing, one of the black inmates, Earl Megget (Nelly), is impressed by Paul’s resilience and joins the team. Megget becomes the team’s running back by impressing Paul with his running ability. Read more
