Home Team is one of the most conceptually-strange cinematic ventures I’ve ever seen, an image management exercise disguised as a scruffy kids comedy. Read full review

Kevin James is at once the film’s most obvious brand signifier and its most surprising asset: As a heavily fictionalized Payton, his surly hangdog energy gives this corndog of a movie what flavor it has. Read full review

Pretend it’s not a “true story” and it’s still a shallow representation of sports, parenthood, and comedy, with almost no laughs. Read full review

It’s yet another comedy of indignities — sorry, make that inanities. Read full review

It's a comedy, so don't expect deep analysis. But it's lighthearted and fun. An enjoyable 90 minutes.

Filme para ver em família num domingo à tarde. História simples mas bonita, principalmente para mim que sou um fã de desporto.

Despite being inspired by a true story, the trajectory this film traces is simply that of a narrative that doesn't even know how to deal with its themes, which range from sports to parenting, and adding salt to the wound, it's supposed to be a comedy, but if anything is really absent hereDespite being inspired by a true story, the trajectory this film traces is simply that of a narrative that doesn't even know how to deal with its themes, which range from sports to parenting, and adding salt to the wound, it's supposed to be a comedy, but if anything is really absent here it's laughs.

It's not disappointing because this is the kind of product Happy Madison produces for Netflix, but it's sad to see the waste of money on people who don't put forth the slightest effort.… Expand
