The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

At the NFL Draft, General Manager Sonny Weaver has the opportunity to rebuild his team when he trades for the number one pick. He must decide what he's willing to sacrifice on a life-changing day for a few hundred young men with NFL dreams. Draft Day is definitely quite the sports film and stars Kevin Costner (The Bodyguard), Jennifer Garner (Daredevil) and Chadwick Boseman (Avengers: Infinity War). The movie is directed by Ivan Reitman (Kindergarten Cop, Twins, Junior, Ghostbusters I & II) and it was definitely way better than it gets credit for. The acting was really good, the dramatic aspect quite excellent and i even got sentimental at one point, definitely recommending it. (10/10)

I don't know much about American football and from what I know I don't think I like it and when the film began the atmosphere it created made me think I won't like this but I was quite wrong. The film unravels in a very engaging way and by the end, I picked up everything spread around to make sense of what exactly happens in these draftings. Personal and professional life clash and the extreme pressure of the general manager of an NFL team manager was safe with Costner and Garner never looked more beautiful or sensible. The green screen effects and split screens were unnecessarily distracting but it did help in never slowing down the pace of the film. I think this would be good for management classes but then again what do I know about that.

Ok, ok, ok, stop it. I know than this movie is far from a masterpiece. Originally I even gave it a 6 based on overall quality. However, it is a movie than I could watch over and over again and I do not even watch football.I changed it because compared to other non-masterpiece than I can watch forever, I do not laugh at the movie but is actually immersed in. The acting can be goofy at time but give it a look, the pacing is great and if you don't like it, trust me I can totally understand, I just cannot not love it.

Kevin Costner stars as Sonny Weaver Jr, the general manager of the Cleveland Browns. He recently lost his father whom he fired due to poor health and now he's getting ready to make an important decision that will shape the continuation of his career, and that's the choice for the number one pick. This proves to be a challenge since he is on the verge of being getting fired. Weaver proves to be the man for the job through his perseverance and tenacity. He manages his career with his personal life and although somewhat strained in the beginning, the love and kinship felt between them is adorable.Overall, the film starts off pretty strong letting you know why football is so important in Cleveland. With great acting and good dialogue, the movie definitely lives up to its name. Even if you're not a sports fan or a football fan, watching the movie makes you want to get into the game. "Draft Day" is a great sports drama that shows you why this particular day is important, In addition, the entire cast is great. However, its Kevin Costner who really stands out.He showed a great amount of depth and persuasiveness in his role. The film also includes cameos by Ellen Burstyn as Weaver's mother, Sean 'Diddy' Combs, Terry Crews, Sam Elliot, Rosanna Arquette, chi Mcbride and Chadwick Boseman. For all sports lovers, don't miss the opportunity to catch this movie.
