Young Marco is obsessed with playing video games and hardly leaves the house. But when his grandfather moves in, Marco’s life is turned upside-down and he’s forced...to go play outside. Nonno introduces him to bocce — the world’s oldest game — and to the neighborhood crew of old-school seniors who play daily at the local court. With sport, laughter and love, Marco finds connection to other people “in real life” and rounds up a team of neighborhood kids to take on his grandfather and his pals.

Julio Vincent Gambuto's debut feature could be dismissed as formulaic and overly sentimental-but only by misanthropes. Cynics have plenty of other options for entertainment. This is a life-affirming feel-good movie

Julio Vincent Gambuto's charmer is a rare live-action family film winner, one that's funny, sweet and certain to make you tear up a little.

Marco's sourness curdles the confection and his undercooked complaints clack against the movie's warm tone, sending its simple pleasures into a scatter.

Charming get-outside-and-play family film; some stereotypes.

Such a warm, feel good film to watch! Highly recommend for families to watch with multiple generations, especially around the holiday season. The film was cast well and I would love to see Anthony Patellis and Owen Vacarro receive nomination recognition for their acting in this film. Each portrayed a convincing job, you really felt for their characters. "Friends are the key to life."

I thoroughly enjoyed this family friendly movie. The story had a message, the characters are relatable, and I easily connected to the emotions portrayed. My ten year old nephew, after seeing the movie, wants to play Bocce!

Its a delightful and current-themed full-family film, bridging the gap between young (techno-kids) and old (techno-lost) family members. Hits all the highs and lows, laughs and tears. Lots to talk about around the kitchen table after viewing.
