| ToxicUniverse.comJohn A. NesbitFeinstein's source book provides sufficient detail to humanize the controversial coach and explain his philosophy, but ESPN goes for the cheap shot instead and doesn't even reach the rim. |
| Los Angeles TimesHoward RosenbergA Season on the Brink is a movie on the brink, as it ploddingly follows Knight and his Hoosiers during the 1985-86 season. |
| VarietyPhil GalloHoosier coach Knight's media profile has been so high for so long, his portrait is complete; Season on the Brink fails to build on that media-created persona. |
| User ReviewKeith JThe book is better,but Brian Dennehy does Coach Knight justice in his portrayl. |
| User ReviewMadelene GI like it cuz james is in it but a basketball story.....nah =) A little too boring for me |
| User ReviewKris SNot a bad film, it was good. I only watched it to see James Lafferty from One Tree Hill, but the film itself ended up being worth watching too, and not just for James. |
| User ReviewJohn YOverly dramatic representation of an already overly dramatic man. |
| User ReviewMckennaI remember when this came on ESPN. It was the beginning of their string of terrible "original movies" series. There wasn't a whole lot to it except for a lot of cursing and yelling. |
| User ReviewEdwin AAnd 2 stars is because I love Coach Knight |
