🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Director Paul Hoen constructs the comedy on the clash between Dave's Olympic-sized ambitions and the modest school setting, relying heavily on physical humor and exaggerated situations. The film works with Christopher Meloni's committed performance, who fully embraces the role of a fallen champion clinging to his glory days.
What lingers after the viewing is a sense of harmless, formulaic fun about redemption and finding your team. Those who tire of cynicism might find its heart in the right place. — MovieFinder Editorial
