Critics Consensus: The Miracle Season has a worthy real-life story to tell, but one-dimensional characters and aggressively maudlin storytelling undercut any emotional uplift.

Tragic loss rocks, then inspires team in true sports story.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that The Miracle Season is an inspiring, fact-based sports drama about a high school volleyball team left reeling by their captain's unexpected death in an accident. Her death isn't shown -- nor is that of her beloved mother from cancer shortly thereafter -- but the impact these two losses have on the movie's other characters could be upsetting for younger/sensitive viewers. But other than that and a little bit of chaste kissing between teens, the movie is squeaky clean: There's no strong language, no fights, and no drinking or drugs. And it's full of positive role models and worthy messages about perseverance, teamwork, and finding positive ways to remember and honor those you've lost. Erin Moriarty, William Hurt, and Helen Hunt co-star.
