Fun and Entertaining!
9 June 2020 | by RobScott-13See all my reviews

Ballers was such an entertaining and fun show! It wanted to be like Entourage and even though it wasn't quite as good it's still absolutely worth watching. The Rock and Rob Corddry lead an excellent cast with a lot of amazing cameos throughout the entire series!
