Burt Reynolds and Kris Kristofferson star as two pro-football pals who both fall for the team-owner's very rich daughter. Kind of goofy, kind of funny, and somewhat endearing--those are the qualities that surface in this light-hearted comedy built upon an extremely predictable scenario. ~ All Movie Guide

Michael Ritchie's football comedy Semi-Tough comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. English and Spanish soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Mono. Spanish and French subtitles are accessible, and the English soundtrack is closed-captioned. Supplemental materials include the original theatrical trailer. While MGM/UA deserves credit for releasing this film with a widescreen image, the disc itself could have been improved with better sound and a few extras. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
