My husband and I watched Game Time: Tackling the Past while enjoying dinner together.  The movie started out with some home football movies.  There were a few flashbacks to when the main character was in high school football practice and games.  There are quite a few actors and actresses that you will recognize in the film.  (Catherine Hicks-the mom from 7th Heaven, Ryan McPartlin-'Awesome' from one of my favorite shows Chuck, Beau Bridges-a lot of shows and movies, Josh Braaten-Semi Pro and a few others).

There is family conflict and personal conflicts that are dealt with in the film.  There is also a love story and family values that are brought to the forefront of the movie when the father (Beau Bridges) falls ill.  There is conflict between the brothers (Ryan McPartlin and Josh Braaten) and coming to piece with an issue they had when younger.  Ryan McPartlin is a pro football player that has a bum knee and is having a difficult time playing.  When  his father falls ill he goes home (which he hasn't visited for a while).  That is when some family drama ensues as well as a little love story.
After some of the conflicts get resolved inside the family Ryan McPartlin's character still needs to do some soul searching and decide whether to return to professional football or settle down in the small town life of his youth.
If part of your family really enjoys sports they will enjoy the movie even if they aren't into the love story.
There was something for everyone.


This film really is family friendly, there are real life conflicts but they are dealt with calmly and reasonably.  There are no "harsh words" or innuendos.  It really is a movie you can watch together as a family.


So mark your calendar and pick up some popcorn and tune in on September 3rd to NBC at 8pmET/7pmCT.
