Chasing Mavericks Review  By: MattInRC  Chasing Mavericks is a feel-good film that's actually good. Make sure to Follow MattInRC on Twitter for all his reviews and tasteless jokes. Under the category of 'feel-good sports flick that don't suck,' we have the giants: Hoosiers (basketball), The Natural (baseball), The Sweater (hockey), and Rudy (football).
