A true story that shies away from the truth.

The facts have been rejiggered to fit the Sandman's formula: Our hero is a seething screw-up, and everyone else is even worse.

Variety

A film that mostly plays as a checklist of scenes and tropes required from a Sandler-backed sports comedy, from half-hearted background pratfalls to extraneous comic-relief sideshows...

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

Home Team is full of feel-good and hilarious moments that show a relationship between a father and son being mended. Unfortunately, the film suffers from glossing over the major scandal that serves as the reason why Payton even went back home...

Rated: 7.5/10

This is one of the best movies I have ever seen! I have seen it so many times it is always a movie that I would be up to watching. My brother and I know basically the entire script we've seen it so many times. It is extremely funny and heartwarming. Even if you don't know football you are bound to love Home Team!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This film is silly and fails to adequately explore the subject matter. It manages to be somewhat entertaining in the first half. However, it downplays the issues that led to Sean Payton's suspension, his involvement in them, and his fight against the suspension. On the other hand, it devotes plenty of screen time to the childish infatuation of a boy with a girl he knows nothing about. The simplification of plays as Mexican food items is amusing and elicits a chuckle, but it undermines the actual achievements of the coaches and the team that overcame difficulties to reach a championship game. It seems as though the creators of this film wanted to enhance this intriguing true story by incorporating Bad News Bears-style humor and silliness, along with a touch of drama involving Payton and his family. Kevin James portrays a likable character, although he doesn't resemble Sean Payton much, unfortunately. The portion of this film that accurately depicts true events is very limited and could be summarized in a paragraph or two, which is regrettable.

This is a great movie, the American football looks like American football, And most characters or and easily one of Kevin james's best movies, however the thing is that I can't give movie a five star because some scenes are just Unnecessary like the foot long scene. But still a good movie.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
