The Long Game (I) (2023)
10/10
Poignant feel good movie!
13 April 2024
The Long Game is based on a true story and is really inspiring. The movie touches upon racism, being an underdog, and the nuances of trying to "fit in" and succeed within a system while simultaneously trying to change the system. The movie immerses you in the story and makes you feel the ups and downs of the characters. The acting is fantastic and really draws the viewer into the depth of each character. In particular, I thought Julian Works did a remarkable job capturing the different influences of his character beautifully from his relationship with his dad to the toll that racism has on him and how he processes all of it throughout the movie. For me, it was just what the doctor ordered, a story of triumph against tremendous odds. Really great for the whole family.
