Won't Back Down


Maggie Gyllenhaal and Viola Davis play two determined mothers, one a teacher, who will stop at nothing to transform their children's failing inner city school. Facing a powerful and entrenched bureaucracy, they risk everything to make a difference in the education and future of their children.

This movie was the dictionary definition of a formula, heart string pulling movie.  You pretty much saw the movie by watching the trailer.  Even with that being said - it's still somewhat watchable due to the actresses and the storyline being about schools/children.

I would recommend people checking this out.  I mean you could definitely wait a couple months until it shows up on cable since there really is no need to pay for this, but it's not all that bad.
