Critics Consensus

The role of probation officer Sean Porter fits Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson like a glove; however, the execution is so cliched, the youths' stories (based on real events), fail to inspire.

The surprisingly effective Gridiron Gang will find its way into that harshly defended emotional endzone, even if they might not necessarily admit it to their friends.

Empire Magazine

What begins as a series of pleasant revelations and a deft example of genre defiance is nearly crippled by cliche in its second half, but The Rock's surprising dramatic magnetism will hold you until the final whistle.

Rated: 3/5

Mostly the movie barrels toward you, stiff-armed.

It's a bit on the long end but nonetheless I enjoyed this. The young men who portrayed the players and "The Rock" all gave solid performances.

Rated: 3/5

A typical, feel-good sports film with nearly every sports cliche' ever captured on film.

Rated: 2.5/4.0

Gridiron Gang probably isn't a film that will appeal to non-sports fans, but it's just good enough to give football fans something to do before the next kickoff.

Even if this type of movie "isn't your cup of tea", this is a must watch. It's a movie about the power of love, community, and the human condition. It shows the importance of having someone in your corner, having someone show up for you... The things we can accomplish when we come together knows no bounds. Much love y'all 🤍🖤🫡

Dissagree with the critics entirely on this one. The events dipicted inspired the hell out of me, I felt Dwayne just did alright, (he could've shown more emotion), and I thought the movie was amazing. 85/100

Absolute cheese, but good stringing cheese. Good to see the Rock playing an actually character. All been done before but a worthy effort. Worth a watch

I do not enjoy "the Rock",, lol 😂. Just realize part of his most recent rise in stardom is because of affiliations in the industry w much of the corruption going on in our nation. He will do and has done whatever it takes to gain success and money . He not a patriot and cares very little about the people of our nation. He is a terrible actor and has had his careee handed to him on a silver platter ,, just realize when you support this actor you are supporting the corruption thay is going to ultimately cost you ,, your freedom and the freedom of your children'/ and grand children. We all need to be more hyper vigilant of what's happening. It is as serious as anything you have ever been cognizant of in your life Stop supporting actors who are going along w this just to gain wealth and prosperity.
