this was an interesting family film,and for the most part it was well done.It was decent,no bad language,so it was great for all to see. I think it was obvious that it was all males behind the scenes ,perhaps it would have had a better solid feel to it ,if it would have had a woman director?Just a thought. Some of the scenes felt off.As a female athlete who once played football,it seemed somewhat off, but overall the acting was good,and at times very funny. The development of the relationship between the uncle and niece was actually pretty well done.Overall a good sports movie,about looking at what we have and not at what we don't have.
