Leave your thoughts about Home Team.
| UproxxVince ManciniHome Team is one of the most conceptually-strange cinematic ventures I’ve ever seen, an image management exercise disguised as a scruffy kids comedy. |
| VarietyGuy LodgeKevin 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. |
| RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoPretend it’s not a “true story” and it’s still a shallow representation of sports, parenthood, and comedy, with almost no laughs. |
| The New York TimesAmy NicholsonIt’s yet another comedy of indignities — sorry, make that inanities. |
| NMEPaul BradshawDriven by big-truck energy and lumbered with tired sports clichés and flat jokes, Home Team feels like its target audience is bad dads who don’t like spending time with their sons. |
| User ReviewhuberdanIt's a comedy, so don't expect deep analysis. But it's lighthearted and fun. An enjoyable 90 minutes. |
| User Revieweverdose19Filme para ver em família num domingo à tarde. História simples mas bonita, principalmente para mim que sou um fã de desporto. |
| User ReviewPan_Krytykno nie... po prostu nic ciekawego... szkoda czasu na takie cudo kinematografii ... |
| User ReviewMetacriticOnurbad [ bad ] adjective, worse, worst;(Slang) bad·der, bad·dest for 36. not good in any manner or degree. |
| User ReviewJLuis_001Despite 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. |
