The story of four high school boys whose undefeated basketball season and friendship are threatened after a drive-by shooting leaves one of them in a coma and one of them with a secret. Brent Fencett, Jed Bracken, and T.J. Lewis are star players on the Charlevoix High School Basketball team; Jackson Carlson is their most obnoxious fan. They are unbeaten on the court and inseparable off it - until Brent gets caught up in his older brother's mixed up life. The consequences of Brent's choice leave T.J. in the hospital, and Brent's soul in turmoil. Written by Frontier Boys

Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Josh Haveman Where does one start to describe this movie? It takes place in a small northern Michigan town during the winter - basketball season. But as one reviewer said, it is NOT a basketball movie. It's a story about 4 buddies who come of age and where right versus wrong, good versus evil, etc. A little too predictable. Some of the camera work was very good. However, the story was weak. I felt it lacked continuity and believability. It just seemed too forced to try to get the storyline across in short periods of time. I think the producer should have inquired from someone who was not associated with the film prior to it's release to be sure the unknowing public would understand it because i found it confusing at times. The acting was poor as well. It was obvious and stereo-typical. The fat kid who can't make the team is always the jokester drawing attention to himself. The quiet kid is the one who faces the dilemma, etc. etc. Kudos for moments of beautiful cinematography, but thumbs down to the project over all. It was just cheesy. Save two hours and watch Stand By Me or the Goonies.
Flavio Coccia I'm still angry for wasting 2 hours of my life watching this religious crap.It has nothing to do with basketball. It's incredibly boring. The actors and the director don't know what they're doing. I guess it could be appreciated only by Christian fanatics who believe that organ donation it's wrong (instead of saving another life you should pray pray pray!) This "thing" should be removed from any basketball movie list (that's how I found it) to save people from wasting their time.Oh, I forgot..keep on praying!
ILYRiCaL I was a bit skeptical about watching this movie, but i must say i was pleasantly surprised. It turned out to be a very touching movie.Despite it being low-budget, the actors are all surprisingly believable and some of the performances are even Oscar-worthy if you ask me. This movie will make you cry sad AND happy tears, and is a movie i believe anyone should be able to enjoy.As for the religious part, it really doesn't matter if you are a Muslim,Christian or a non-believer, because the moral aspect of it applies to everyone. Enjoy.
aspecialdaydj I did not expect "The Frontier Boys" to be a great film, but indeed I found it to be so. The actors pulled me into their characters right away. They were both believable and honest. It did not have the feel of a low budget film in any way. The only thing I would change is to make the snowmobile scene shorter. Well done film that deserves to be seen! While I knew going in that there were Christian performers in the film, they were very subtle yet effective in presenting faith as a source in times of need. I was especially impressed with Earthquake Kelly's performance. His performance was so genuine I cried! Yet all of the actors were believable and real.Laura Cooper
