Draft Day Movie

[PntherPryd]

I saw the trailer last weekend and was underwhelmed.  Got me thinking though if I would be pumped up as a Browns fan or if I would like the story to use a fictional Panther team instead.  

 

Anyone else heard anything about the movie?  Seems quiet on talk radio about it also, I would think they would be talking it up.

If I'm not mistaken someone had a thread about a quote on the front of a magazine about it. Said it was realistic concerning what goes on in the war room.....or whatever they call it. Its about football, so I'm pumped anyway. Haha!

I am not a Kevin Costner fan.   The plot:  Without having read or seen anything about it---A losing team, a losing coach and a GM struggle to not only save the franchise from losing, but from moving.  It is a team beloved by the blue-collar Dawg Pound fans, but one that has failed miserably.  And little Timmy's dying wish is, if he can't get that kidney transplant, for the Browns to hoist the Lombardi. Kevin Costner plays a wheelin' and dealin' GM, standing on his last leg with his back against the wall, as he navigates through the draft like Blackbeard around the outer banks.  And Like Blackbeard, Costner is an unpopular Swashbuckler, a free-spirited trend setter, working against the grain and all of humanity until his values are realized.  No treasure chest, but he manages to dig a Lombardi from the sand of doubt--a trophy buried by naysayers and skeptics long ago.  And Timmy gets that kidney transplant during halftime of the Super Bowl, where the Browns beat the Seahawks on an incredible play by Costner's controversial #1 draft pick.

But James Earl Jones said "They will come."

The first couple of times I saw this I thought it was a joke.

I did too, man. But when you think about it, it really is a joke. They makers just didn't intend on it being one.

It is getting mostly mediocre reviews.
