Coach Carter Samuel L. Jackson as a hard-ass high-school basketball coach

Plot Ken Carter (Jackson) is an unorthodox high-school basketball coach, but while his methods raise eyebrows, the results can't be argued with. However, when Carter benches his entire team after discovering how abysmal their grades are, controversy is stirred... Verdict On paper a routine sports yarn. On screen, thanks to Jackson refusing to phone it in, far more satisfying than you might expect.
