Kelce is an intimate and emotional feature-length documentary that chronicles Philadelphia Eagles team captain and All-Pro center Jason Kelce's 2022-23 season, which began with him confronting one of the most challenging decisions any professional athlete will ever face--is now the time to hang it up? After deciding to return for his 12th NFL season, Kelce embarked on a remarkable journey, highlighted by the arrival of his third daughter; the debut of his chart-topping podcast New Heights, which he co-hosts with brother, Kansas City Chiefs All-Pro tight end Travis; and a history-making Super Bowl appearance that placed the entire Kelce family at the center of the sports world. But as the season came to a close, Kelce was still left grappling with what life looks like after he moves on from the game he loves, and if this hungry dog has one more run in him.

...a fairly standard documentary that does an effective job, for the most part, of sustaining the interest of football neophytes...

Rated: 2.5/4

Epoch Times

NFL Films needs to step back and reexamine what it wishes to convey to both its core audience and the uninitiated. Presenting players swearing like longshoremen probably isn’t the way to go.

Rated: 2.5/5

What’s disappointing is that the film’s subject is a character, a card, and a natural cut-up. However, the viewer doesn’t learn much about the man that we already know from numerous interviews or his popular podcast.

Rated: C-

The key to Kelce is that it's the story of Jason Kelce as a son, brother, husband, and father, not just as the popular Eagles center.

Kelce is a nice, well-crafted documentary about a likable figure, but its appeal is probably limited to Eagles fans or truly hardcore NFL fans.

Goes right where so many recent sports documentaries have gone wrong. It chose a worthy subject and explored him in a way that didn't feel like a commercial for him

Enjoyed seeing behind the scenes and especially the home life of a NFL player at a very unsexy position. Watching his internal struggle of whether to continue to play was refreshingly vulnerable. (85%)

Its focus isn't football, but a person within football, that's what it gets right. Maybe we don't get to see deeply into the protagonist, but then, it's a public figure, that's comprehensible.

My son was looking forward to watching this so we tried it out for like 10 minutes and had to turn it off because of how many F words there were. this is definitely not family-friendly :(

First and foremost, it was really boring. He's a pretty boring person. Second, his language is atrocious and his wife drops the f bomb routinely in front of their small children. I use the f bomb quite a lot myself but it just seemed over the top and inappropriate for a documentary that begins with him reading bedtime stories to his 2 adorable daughters. Finally, it seems like he didn't retire out of fear, which is sad.
