Favorite scene
My favorite scene in the film Coach Carter occurred when Timo Cruz returned to the gym after he have decided to leave the same, and the couch (Ken Carter) told him that he had to do 2500 lizards and 1,000 suicides if he want to return, but he hasnt finished his obligation, and he could abandoned definitely the team, but his classmates told that they was a team, so they want to finish her duty for him.
Favorite character
My favorite character in the film Coach Carter was Ken Ray Carter (Samuel L. Jackson), the couch of Richmond, because he never surrendered, he taught his players a lot of values and who to be winner in the basketball and in their lives. One of the things that surprise me was the fact that he never stops to move forward, although all the people were disagreed with his methods. I regard him as a wise who knows what he says.
Would you recommend this film?
Yes, I recommend this film because I think it was very entertaining, it has funny moments, a lot of teachings, and it was an inspiring film. I especially recommend this film to all peoples who started something new and that are important in their lives.

"I study English in my school, I´m in pre-Intermedio. thank you for the check, later I´m going to translate the review to Spanish.
I made [wrong] mistakes/errors in the biography, please tell me if you see some mistakes now:
Kenny Ray Carter was born o n February 13 [of ]1959 in Fernwood, Mississippi. He is an American business owner, education activist and former high school basketball coach. Carter attended college at San Francisco State, then Contra Costa College, and finally George Fox University, where he played basketball. He was portrayed by Samuel L. Jackson in the 2005 film, Coach Carter. Every one of his players at Richmond, where he coached from 1997 to 2002, managed to graduate. Carter was raised strictly on academics, but found a liking in sports. As a basketball coach, he maintained that his athletes must take their studies seriously[; as well they are going to] so they could gainaccess to college and other opportunities in their lives.
This phrase doesn't make much sense to me: strictly on academics, but found a liking in sports - I know it means his parents insisted he studied well at school but he also discovered a love of sport. However, as you have copied it from wikipaedia it may be the American way of phrasing it.
If you have to read this out loud remember we say 1959 as nineteen fifty nine.
Do you need help with the longer piece in your first post? It is a good idea to leave some mistakes - you do not want your teachers to think your English is perfect.
Hi Gabo Can you add on your profile your English and Spanish level?
Are you learning English in the USA or somewhere else? In the UK we use film in the USA they say movie. You have used both.
Things to check: Singular/plural agreement The difference between make and do Minor spelling mistakes eg couch/coach Correct preposition after verbs eg English married to Spanish casar con
Have another go. Perhaps a paragraph at a time.
As someone learning Spanish I would like to read your review in Spanish too.
