People are biased towards certain comedy actors for some reason I don't know.

They give minus points before watching their movies.

Kevin James, Rob Schneider are among these names.

Kevin James, who is also a huge sports fan, produced the film.

Adapted from a scandal in the NFL, the movie meets the average viewing pleasure it promises to its audience.

Kevin and Rob have always been good drama actors. You can't do comedy if you don't already have drama skills.

I watched Apocalypse Now for the first time and it sort of messed me up so I needed a light watch to follow. Enter "Home Team."

My expectations were low coming into this film. Was it a cinematic masterpiece? No. Did I still have a good time? Yes. Was it a PR stunt for Sean Payton and the Saints? Probably. Did I care? No.

The 1990s brought us a bunch of fun sports movies for kids like "The Sandlot," "The Mighty Ducks," "Rookie of the Year," and "Angels in the Outfield." This movie shares some of that DNA. While it doesn't reach the heights of the best of the kids sports movie genre, I had a good time watching this movie. If there's anyone that's itching for a feel-good, kid-friendly sports movies, "Home Team" will scratch that itch.

I thought this was a nice little movie. It was more of a light drama with some humour than a straight out comedy, and I enjoyed both aspects of it.

I really like Kevin James and as usual he was great in this. It's always nice to see Taylor Lautner as well. The child actors were all quite good too. Actually, the entire cast did a great job.

The plot was simple but still fun. The ending was absolutely fantastic and I feel like the build up to that moment was perfect.

Inevitably, this movie won't be loved by all, but it's a fun enough time with a positive message, and its PG rating means it is definitely something the whole family can enjoy.

First being a Happy Madison production you pretty much know what to expect. Silly over substance. But here you have some sliver of real life in that it "kicks-off" from an actual event in which New Orleans Saints coach Payton was suspended for a year from his NFL job. Weaving a story of hardship into a connection with his son brings our coach back to coaching on an entirely different level. Since one doesn't expect a warts and all soul searching documentary this is made into pure entertainment. With modest expectations it succeeds and is fun to watch. It's slight in a good way so I'd say if you want a feel good family flick with a few laughs this qualifies.

I didn't expect this film to be as funny as it was. The last couple Happy Madison films were pretty bad. This one had me busting up laughing over and over. I'm glad I gave in and decided to give this film a shot. 6 stars.
