Gave this a read. Writing is clear and dialogue natural. The issue i think it has - as far as commerciality goes - starts with the logline and continues throughout. Is this a sports movie? Sometimes. Is this a thriller? Occasionally. Is it a coming of age drama? A lot of the time.

I don't think this story has found itself yet. If it is a thriller about gangland revenge on a good kid trying to escape a bad neighborhood - then it needs to focus on that. The football games aren't needed. And the gangsters disappear for the whole seond act.

Happy to discuss if the writer is around.
