A superstar during his football playing days, Spencer Strasmore tries to find the same success as a financial manager for current players in sun-splashed Miami. Heeding his boss Joe's instruction to "monetize his friendships," Spencer builds a client base of young phenoms and veteran stars alike, but his role in their lives far exceeds money management as he struggles to help them navigate the many traps that come with life as big-time "ballers." The series is created by Stephen Levinson ("Entourage," "Boardwalk Empire") and stars Dwayne Johnson as Spencer.

Liz Shannon Miller IndieWire Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is back, and balling as hard as ever. May 30, 2018 Full Review Allison Rose FlickDirect The overall theme of the series, the life as a current/ former football player, is still there, though the stakes seem to be higher this time around. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 15, 2019 Full Review Christopher Lawrence Las Vegas Review-Journal This is not the stuff of great comedy. It's barely the stuff of interesting TV. May 30, 2018 Full Review Eddie Strait The Daily Dot Ballers is never going to be confused for one of HBO's premier comedies like Veep or Silicon Valley-and that's OK. Ballers is exactly what it presents itself to be. Sep 7, 2017 Full Review Daniel Johnson Screen Rant Ballers continues to prove that Johnson's star power is enough to keep a series relevant. Sure, the show may not be groundbreaking in any way, but Johnson's presence makes it worth the modest time investment each week. Jul 25, 2017 Full Review Bernard Boo We Got This Covered Ballers remains one of the breeziest, easiest-to-watch shows on cable, and that's a good and bad thing. Rated: 5/10 Jul 21, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Regal R 30/100 - wanted to like it, couldnt. only got worse as the seasons go on. dwayne the rock johnson tried to break free from his previous disney persona with this character but it doesnt work. iykyk Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/18/23 Full Review Audience Member excellent series, with very good plot Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member While season two of Ballers was a step up, season three is a slight step down. The majority of the season is focused on Spencer's desire to get the Raiders to move to Las Vegas, and honestly the storyline is pretty boring, and the rest of the storylines aren't as entertaining as the previous two seasons, either. The financials of this season are also a mystery for the most part and a lot of what ASM is involved with doesn't seem to make financial sense. There is still entertainment to be had, but it's not nearly as attention-grabbing as before. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Lost me in session 3. Nuff said. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Even though it’s a show ballers shows how important agents are. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Gives you a taste of what could be in Vegas, but keeps it so far. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
