Movie #3511 "Home Turf" (Hallmark) This is not Christmas, but this is the best of the new "Christmas" batch of Hallmark movies this year so far ---- I really enjoyed this one, and for it being on football, it must have been a great script with interesting characters and good acting. And it was! Nikki DeLoach is one of my favorites so I wasn't surprised the film would be one of the better ones, but having not been impressed by Warren Christie in his Montana film that started all the Hallmark christmas season this year, I was totally floored he was so engaging in this one --- and he had to go pretty far in being convincing as a big deal football player and son of a guru in football --- the story involved a part of a football team that has no housing for a while (due to bad water pipes) and they move into the president of a small colleges home for that amount of time , and everyone changed a little bit for the better. So its focus seemed to rise above the usually surfacey subject matter that is covered in some of these Hallmark films. The forming of a temporary 'family" with non-football enthusiasts and football players makes for an optimistic game plan for a film and I'd give it a 5. This is a must see this year, I think.
