Ratings and reviews

Never has the NFL Draft been so hyped up. The first ever movie about a professional sports draft hyped to ridiculous levels. On tv Draft day is boring as hell, endless hours of people analysing stats of prospective athletes and the teams interested in them and how high they might get selected. But this movie makes it seem a matter of national importance, as if the world hangs in the balance. However it was engaging enough to sit through and watch. Jennifer Garner's character has nothing to do.

I'm not a football fan but I really enjoyed this because of the intense dealing behind the game that creates the teams we all love to watch. Costner did a great job to bring that to reality. It shows there is more to what you see on the field.

I'm a huge NFL fan and really enjoyed this. I can see how many not so big fans would feel this movie was little too "insider" though.
