We've Got Balls is a quirky, family friendly that offers a good many laughs as it imparts a tender and important social message. The film's premise centers around the concept that what may mean nothing to one person may mean everything to somebody else. It keys in on the proverbial David and Goliath scenario when a filthy rich land developer, Vivian Brechner, decides not to renew the land lease on a bowling alley in a small town, so that together with a local avaricious tribal Indian chief, she can tear it down to make way for a gambling casino.

But what happens when the 52 people in Fountain Springs learn that Fountain Bowl the “only thing they've got” is teetering on the brink of destruction? Their community lifestyle, as they have known it, is about to come to an abrupt and tragic end. Or, is it?

You want laughs? Then Cherie Kerr's We've Got Balls is for you. Funny, irreverent, like a 90 minute SNL Sketch that's actually funny. Great characters and a lot of balls, bowling balls that is. This film played to a sold out house at the beautiful Krikorian Theaters with NO COMP tickets and a line out the door. Laughter rang from the theater for the entire screening with no dead spots. That's hard to do for any comedy let alone an indie comedy with no real name stars and an unknown director. Just think about the 40 million dollar stinker Movie 43 directed by Elizabeth Banks and packed with stars and they couldn't get a laugh. You want funny, get We've Got Balls, you'll get plenty of laughs.

This is a wholly fun film from beginning to end, filled with exceptional moments of comic brilliance, excitement, and some moments of melancholy and despair. All in all, it's highly entertaining and genuinely worth seeing again and again.

This movie is a throwback to the good old fashioned comedies of yesterday, with an ensemble cast of characters that will keep you laughing at every turn. It's an evening of fun for the entire family
