I adore Carla Gugino from Karen Sisco and Threshold, but even she couldn’t enliven the anemic The Mighty Macs, a family friendly historical drama about a women’s college basketball team before Title IX existed. Even nuns occasionally being saucy or revealing that they had lives before they were nuns added nothing. Every underdog sports movie trope is explored like a Paint by Numbers kit. The students are mostly interchangeable and unmemorable. One is boy crazy. One is poor. That is all I can remember about them-names elude me. David Boreanaz picks up a paycheck and acts like he just met his wife at the start of The Mighty Macs-she wants a job! The Mighty Macs tries to recreate what life was like before it was widely taken for granted that women would have jobs after marriage or ambition, but it is so half-heartedly recreated that there appear to be little to no obstacles at all. The Mighty Macs has its heart in the right place, but it isn’t really beating. Skip it.
