A Powerful film

MVP was a really beautiful and powerful film that really went low under the radar. Here we are in 2024 and I'm just now finding out about the film which was released in 2022. Nate Boyer who directed and stars in this film does a great job in front and behind the camera. The acting from the supporting cast is also pretty decent. This is a story that needs to be told about Veterans in the military and also Vererans from a professional sport who are finding it difficult living civilian lives after their profession. The film tackles fighting with suicide, post traumatic stress, brotherhood, family, and getting help. Loved to see a lot of cameos in this film from the NFL. Loved the title of this film as it stands for Merging Vets and players. The movie takes it time with the story it wants to tell and has a very powerful ending. MVP gets a very high rating of 8 stars out of 10.

A film with great heart

I was lucky enough to see this at a Florida film festival. Based on a true story, it resonates for all that have to make peace with their past, good and bad, as life moves forward. Nate Aboyer does an amazing job as the writer, director and lead actor. He stars as a veteran (former Marine) against Mo McRae as the recently retired NFL star. The two cross paths and learn that both need to find a new purpose. It could be told in a very dark way but I think this is a film for most ages as it's a perennially story to either reinvent ourselves or find a way to fit in. This film has tremendous heart.
