OK father-daughter feelgood movie
It's never going to win Oscars, and Dwayne Johnson looks (surprisingly) weak in the emotional acting department at times but this is still an OK kids movie.
Nothing to worry about here: no unexpected nasties, just good clean silly fun.
It manages to be a nice father-daughter movie, and as we have three daughters that's appreciated. It is silly, funny, highly sentimental and you need to check your brain at the door - but if you're in the right mood and have the little people to enjoy this with then it works.
The first 20 minutes were so-so but the rest rocked. A little sentimental in places but overall it's Disney pure and simple.
Good support roles and lots of good understanding of what girls want, plus good energy, and a good message mean that this can be viewed by everyone. The boys and dads will love the football, and the mums and daughters will like this too. But it really is a bonding film for daughters and dads at its best.
Fun and moving stuff.
