Home Team

It's not an earth-shattering award winning sports film, but if you're looking for a funny, family friendly, story with some virtue - Home Team is a great pick. Not everything is stereotypical for a football flick, either.

People are biased towards certain comedy actors for some reason I don't know.

They give minus points before watching their movies.

Kevin James, Rob Schneider are among these names.

Kevin James, who is also a huge sports fan, produced the film.

Adapted from a scandal in the NFL, the movie meets the average viewing pleasure it promises to its audience.

Kevin and Rob have always been good drama actors. You can't do comedy if you don't already have drama skills.

Happy Madison released a new Netflix film with Kevin James, HOME TEAM. On paper the idea of approaching the true story of the Saints scandal with their stupid brand of humour sounds like a disaster but it was not as bad as I thought, I actually had fun with it.

You do have Rob Schneider in a completely useless, unfunny and over-the-top character as usual, but they kept it down to earth compared to their other films, and the biggest surprise to me is that I actually laughed a few times, the kids had good chemistry together.

There's one gross-out scene that was also pointless and was typical bad Adam Sandler humor. Honestly it's the kind of film that Dads will watch with their sons during this NFL playoffs season and most likely will have a good time bonding over football.

I thought this was a nice little movie. It was more of a light drama with some humour than a straight out comedy, and I enjoyed both aspects of it.

I really like Kevin James and as usual he was great in this. It's always nice to see Taylor Lautner as well. The child actors were all quite good too. Actually, the entire cast did a great job.

The plot was simple but still fun. The ending was absolutely fantastic and I feel like the build up to that moment was perfect.

Inevitably, this movie won't be loved by all, but it's a fun enough time with a positive message, and its PG rating means it is definitely something the whole family can enjoy.

If you enjoy Kevin James movies then you'll enjoy this. It's a good family sports movie, Rob Schneider is great in it. The kids are funny, it's worth the watch for a comedy or football fan.
