Lady Ballers

You pretty much know exactly what you are going to get when you turn on this movie. It delivers exactly what it promises - crass humor pointing out and mocking the absurdity of biological men participating in women's sports. If you agree with the message of the movie, you will likely get some laughs out it. If you don't agree with the message, you will definitely hate it. It is glaringly obvious in its message, but no moreso than what you get from Hollywood on the other side of the fence. While this is certainly not gonna win any writing, acting, or directing awards, it is nice to see an attempt to provide an alternative to the left-leaning material that is currently being served up by Hollywood. Hopefully, enough people watch this movie that The Daily Wire and other conservative outlets will continue to provide an alternative to Hollywood's content and will slowly increase both the quality and quantity of content.

Watched Lady Ballers this morning. It's available only on Daily Wire+. The movie reminds me of comedies from the 80's or 90's; silly and irreverent. No nudity, but there are some racy jokes about body parts and bedroom acts.

Jeremy Boreing plays the head coach of a men's basketball team who all decide to identify as female to win a women's tournament. The jokes practically write themselves. To be honest, some land and some don't. Enough land, however, to rank LB at 7/10.

Matt Walsh playing against type as "Kris" the hippie was delightful. Couldn't stop laughing whenever he was on screen. And, the actress who plays coach's daughter is very sweet. She steals the opening scene.

What I didn't expect to be so wow-ed by was the musical score and beautiful drone shots of Nashville. The opening theme song is earnest and oh-so cheesy; a la American Flyers. Love it! There were lots of musical changes of pace, too, like the switch to an old-worldy accordion tune for the scene where coach is getting roughly handled by the dominatrix reporter. "Furnace burn!"

I've also got some quibbles. For example, the final, fade-to-black image was totally unrelated to the rest the movie. Just oddly edited. Also, the players were too often either fighting or high fiving. That got old quick; as if dudes can't just sit and chill without punching each other.

Overall, it was fun.

I'm a DW supporter, and I want them to produce great content. This is only OK.

Run hide fight was good, not great.

Terror on the prairie was ok, Shut in was rough What is a woman was great doc Convicting a murderer was great doc

First of all. 1h52m is way too long for a comedy, unless it is absolutely amazing. Should have been 80 minutes. We found ourselves struggling to get to the end. It's a comedy, get in there, make the jokes, get out on a high point, fill it with a story with a remotely plausible plot.

I like them using DW folks for some of the actors, but Boreing as a lead fell pretty short. Some parts of his acting was fine, most was not. Didn't seem natural. Probably keep him to cameos only going forward.

The plot was weak on the whole. The idea was great, but execution is tough I guess. Comedies are not supposed to be the most cerebral of genres, but if all you're standing on is the jokes, they better bring the heat.

The writing/dialogue was fine for the most part.

Jokes were okay without being excessively mean spirited.

They are a new studio, so I am hopeful they will improve.

Pretty decent movie. Good production value from the Daily Wire crew. Blazing Saddles or Friday it's not but a solid effort. Reminds me of Not Another Teen Movie or the Benchwarmers. Slapstick no name cast with a bunch of special appearances. Good to be able to laugh at the reality of the situation. This is exactly where competitive sports are heading with out oversight. And this movie addresses it in a funny manner. Humor is always going to offend someone but in the vein of Family Guy, Chappelle or South Park its distributed equally and not intended for harm. Maybe this can spark more healthy open dialogue.

I lean conservative, I'd like to think too that I'm a realist. This movie, realistically does not deserve the high ratings.

The acting, on the whole, is just a titch above high school play level. The story was low IQ level. The jokes not fresh or funny. The pace veeeery slow.

Camera and cinematography was perhaps the best part of the movie.

I just did not find this entertaining.

The whole thing kinda reminds me of when a bunch of guys get together and laugh at farts or when one of their buddies accidently hurts themselves.

Moronic. Boring. Idiotic. Slow.

But then again I'm not a guy, or stuck in high school brain zone.
