Turkey Bowl (2011)
Much more than a sports film
21 October 2011 - 2 out of 3 users found this review helpful.
This is the thinking person's sports film. Essentially it's a story of old friends and a few new people who get together to play a tradition of an annual touch football game. But below the surface, it's much more than that. "Turkey Bowl" busts the many clichés of films that revolve around a game or team, and uses the device to tell a deeper stories about fractured friendships, mending relationships and the beginnings of bonding. The action on the football field keeps the story moving forward, but the authentic interplay between characters - including improvised dialog - make this a much more satisfying and true parable on several different levels. Highly recommended.
