Fantasy Football

Fantasy Football has an intriguing concept that initially caught my interest. The idea of blending sports with fantastical elements has potential, and I appreciate the film's attempt to explore this unique premise. Some performances are genuinely enjoyable, and there are moments when the visuals manage to captivate, offering a glimpse of what could have been a more engaging experience.

However, the film falls short in several crucial areas. The execution of the concept is poorly handled, leading to a narrative that feels both disjointed and underdeveloped. The jokes, meant to provide humor and lightheartedness, often miss the mark, falling flat and failing to elicit the laughs they aim for. The CGI, while ambitious, frequently comes off as lackluster and unconvincing, detracting from the overall enjoyment and immersion.

In summary, while Fantasy Football boasts a promising concept and some commendable performances, it struggles with poor execution and lackluster visuals. The film's attempt at humor and special effects doesn't quite hit the mark, leaving it feeling more like a missed opportunity than a fully realized entertainment piece.

I actually liked the cast; Marsai is always great. I think they cast had a good chemistry and a lot of parts were funny. The movie dragged at some parts to the or falling action or resolution but I would watch it again. At certain parts the acting was a little cringe but all in all I think every one did okay. It was a light hearted movie that symbolized the importance of family, teamwork, friendship, selflessness and being considerate of others. I think the targeted demographics (pre-teens and teen) would definitely understand the message that they could take with them into their day today life.

This is a great movie. From the writing to the cast, and even the musical selection, everyone deserves an A. For starters, I love featuring young women as part of stem theme. To see the young ladies work in robotics is a nice treat because science is a rewarding field or interest. Secondly, the concept of how video games mirror life comes to life in this movie; especially in the creative player mode as seen in the film. Lastly, the movie has a great storyline where you see the results of putting others before yourself. All in all, this is a great movie. I've watched it several times already and am sure you will do the same.

Fantasy Football is a film that has the potential to become a favorite. Since American football is one of the most popular sports in the world, what could be better than to combine a seasoned cast with beloved sport in a new movie?

The storyline follows Bobby Coleman (Omari Hardwick), an NFL running back constantly hit with misfortune on the field. As his life fills with questions, he and his daughter Callie (Marsai Martin) argue and Callie's discovers she can control Bobby's playing through a video game. You have to watch the film to find out if Bobby is able to use this to his advantage, or if it creates more trouble for everyone.

Fantasy Football is a comical, family friendly movie. Bobby's big problem is that he cannot keep the football in his hands long enough to land himself a starting spot or make a positive impact on any team. Although actual NFL players may not be in the exact same circumstance as Bobby, this movie nicely represents what their real experiences may be like. For me, it was fascinating to see what the life of a professional athlete might look like. The actors express multiple emotions, and their ability to drop hilarious lines and make faces that catch the audience's attention is what makes this so much fun. The dynamics and banter between Bobby and Anderson (Rome Flynn) helps carry the movie, and make it one that I would watch more than once. Led by Sekinah Brown, the costume designs display dedication and attention to detail. The uniforms that Bobby and the players wear look identical to actual Atlanta Falcons' uniforms.

The message of Fantasy Football is that nothing worth having comes easy. Bobby has had the worst luck in the NFL, after not breaking the rushing record, but all of his struggles become worth it when he finally gets his opportunity to shine.

I give Fantasy Football 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 18, plus adults. Fantasy Football is available now on Paramount+. Make sure you check this out! By Maica N., KIDS FIRST!

This movie is what you expect from a nick body controlled type movie. It's a good movie with a football loving family. It's pretty cheesy and the ending doesn't make any sense but its still pretty good. The main character (the daughter) is funny and a likable character. The football part of the movie is the best part of the movie and is way better than the love plot of the movie which was a overused mess. The villain wasn't really a villain was still a cool character and you don't blame him for being the bad guy. But the movie is still a pretty good family movie that can be dumb at times but still good.
