This Players movie was boring.
Pros: The only one I mostly connected to is Gina Rodriguez’s character. I like how this film had the genre of sport represented and seeing actor Tom Ellis on my screen again.
Cons: I didn’t feel the chemistry between Mack & Nick was genuine. The story was very generic. The comedy wasn’t all that funny and not that much to enjoy about this movie.
