Finally watched it ... Liked it didn't love it

I hate the lack of football. The series got away with just showing practice until the last episode.

The trailer I saw shows some practice scenes, except they must of have lost the uniforms from the show because Thad always wore his away jersey while Alex in his home jersey. This time, they're playing in just shorts and a t-shirt.

It's an hour and a half but the whole movie they're at a party and the ending isn't funny it's kinda sad and weird ... All the hype they could of done so much better don't get me wrong tho it has it's moments

that and as other say: no plot, no American football [although I can live without it as I'm from Europe], show was based on kind of innocence, happy recklessness, lack of bad feelings... like BMS was done on LSD or E.
Film isn't like that at all.

To add to my credibility to it, I'm writing as a fan of the TV show, as well as my gf. To get ready for this film we have watched series once again and it was as good as last time round.

Film has as much laugh as one episode in 10 minutes.

My wild guess is : screen writers / actors became to serious to do a light-hearted film.
I will keep enjoying TV series and forget about this.

It reminds me a story of American Pie [last part?] - went to the cinema to watch dumb, light comedy with some tits, and loads of humour. I really got a film about: how adulthood sucks ;-D and how boring people over 30 are ;D

At least BMS was simply not the best piece with some 2 good scenes.

Their intention is to make a party movie though. Who actually expected american football to be played?

The ending isn't sad or weird at all.
