Home Team

اچھی فلم!

I expected a silly over the top comedy full of bad jokes and bad physical comedy. What I got was a fantastic uplifting comedy with some bad jokes and silly physical comedy. The story true and accurate or not is a great tale of playing sports and having a good time in life. Sit back and watch this fantastic show about kids and the adults that could learn a thing or two from them. If you do not like it the issue is you not the movie be a better person.

"Home Team" is the best thing that has ever been done by Netflix. It was a joy to watch from start to finish. It joins the ranks of the all-time great sports movies. The cast is top-notch and everybody is on their game, especially Kevin James. James has never been better. "Home Team" knows the rules of little league style sports movies. It plays by those rules and scores big. I had a great time watching "Home Team" and I plan on watching it again real soon.

I didn't expect this film to be as funny as it was. The last couple Happy Madison films were pretty bad. This one had me busting up laughing over and over. I'm glad I gave in and decided to give this film a shot. 6 stars.

But I enjoyed watching. Its a throwback to those old inspirational movies about real people (athletes, soldiers, etc) who win in the end. Maybe we need some more of these.

If You Like Kevin James, you will like this film. If you don't like Kevin, you may STILL like this film, which has the usual cliches, but also several scenes that really work (funny and moving). Don't know how accurate the story is to fact, but it's engaging enough, despite a few odd ball dumb characters you would expect in a "Billy Madison" production (e.g. Adam Sandler's buddy Rob Schneider once again playing a way out in left field character who is just strange w/o being funny, whose character is married to Sean Peyton's (Kevin James) ex-wife (played by Adam Sandler's real life wife Jackie Sandler who was introduced to Adam by Rob Schneider...whew!). Anyway, if you don't follow the NFL, the real Sean Peyton (again, played by Kevin James in this film) just retired from coaching the NFL's New Orleans Saints the day the film was released - No doubt planned timing for promoting this Netflix Original film. Recommend viewing if you're looking for nice family safe comedy with positive messaging (adults can like this too - I did).

The premise is a, not so subtle, rip-off of a 1998 film of the same name. It's not a remake, because American football, okay. The cast is the usual bunch of Sandler's buddies (and his wife), more power to them. The coach (Kevin James) is played mostly straight, which seems in contrast to James' usual physical comedy style. The vomiting scene is indicative of this movie trying too hard to be funny. Disjointed would sum this movie up. It has no core, everything just happens. It struggles as a feel good film, and falls flat as a comedy. It didn't really work for me, not my demographic. This movie will entertain the kids, maybe.

I really enjoyed this movie. It's funny and heart warming. Although there was a scene in the third act that was overdone it's fun for the whole family. Tim Treakle.

This movie is exactly what you'd expect from a random Kevin James/Happy Maddison production. It's marginally funny, super corny and just not that good.

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.
