Am I Missing Something?

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Reviews here are hilarious. People claiming there are stereotypes do so because they are blinded by their own stereotypes. A girl that likes football doesn't have to be tomboyish and manly. She can as well like pink and glitter. So this portrayal of Bella actually goes against all stereotypes. Same goes for the rest. Some boys have masculine features, others are more soft. Some thing they are supposed to be tougher and not like certain songs for example, but they learn that it doesn't matter. Most have no Texas accent, but still people who have one exist so we see one as well. And what is the nonsense about guys being too skinny for football? Those are middle school players, not the professional NFL team. They may all become bigger or choose to become a scientist instead in a few years. Please, those are kids.Well besides the nonsense that people are saying the show is pretty entertaining for the kids and offers a lot of characters with diverse personalities. I loved little Newt and Ace, they were hilarious. The rest of characters were also a good addition to the show and made us laugh. When it comes to acting one can see that some are already pretty good. somehow it was Brec Bassinger (Bella) whose acting I thought was the worst. And yet as I see she had more jobs after, maybe she improved.The adults on the show, like on most kid's shows are side characters and for the most part not very smart. Which is needed for the shows where kids are in total charge of the situation. But they are still very fun and great. I love the coach for example. He is the best adult on the show being funny and supportive.

Another crappy Nickelodeon sitcom. The show revolves around a girl named Bella who was once a cheerleader but somehow managed to get starting quarterback on the football team because she randomly threw a football like 30 feet across the field.The characters are all horrible stereotypes. Bella is an annoying perky spoiled white girl. Yawn.....She is no different then the other female Nickelodeon leads like Tori Vega, Carly Shay, Taylor Hathaway. She's a perfect Mary-Sue who gets everything she wants. Newt is the nerdy corny white kid who gets picked on. Troy is pompous hotheaded arrogant douche swag black kid who think's he's all that. Sawyer is juts a tall redneck dude with a horrible country accent, Sophie is the sassy tough Latina chick, Pepper is annoying little prissy Asian who was adopted by white parents. What is with that Ace Mcfumbles kid and his black friend sidekick. They're pointless, unfunny and add nothing to the show.A girl allowed in the boys locker room is okay??? They would never due a boy in the girls locker room. Both sides are inappropriate.Troy and Sawyer are the skinniest football players I've ever seen. Also, how did a midget twerp like Newt who looks like a 7 year old end up on the football None of these guys size would be on the professional football team. The stereotypes are horrible. Why does Bella and her friends have to be such a giggly ditsy girly girls. Her football is covered in colorful rhinestones, her locker area is all pink, fluffy and covered with flowers, she and her friends can't live without make-up, Bella's perfectly curled hair. All the guys on the football team are sexist jerks. The attempts at catchphrases are pathetic! Bella's "Sha-BooYA" and Newt's "Who said that" are both equally lame, unfunny, and corny. The opening theme song is atrocious. Way not to be subtle with using songs like Taylor Swifts "Shake it Off" and Kelly Clarkson's "Stronger". We get it GIRL POWAH!Stupid concept. Stupid show. Enough of this politically correct agenda that is shoving it's way into film and now television. A female linebacker in the NFL? Give me a break! I'm sick of this forced girl power garbage. I have the same problem with the new show on Fox called Pitch which has a similar premise except with baseball.

I am a big football fan so I thought I would enjoy this show but I was wrong.The show revolves around a girl named Bella who was once a cheerleader but somehow managed to get starting quarterback on the football team, now this girl Bella being the main character is just like every other Nickelodeon show that stars a female, she is the perfect character, in the end always gets what she wants and this really annoys me, I am so tired of seeing the same thing over and over in all of these shows.The other people on the show include the former QB named troy who I'll never understand how in the world he made the football team, no offense to the guy but he has the skinniest body I have ever seen... anyways he is now a wide receiver and is probably the second most adored on the football team.Others characters include Sawyer who reminds me of a redneck because he talks like one. Then there is Newt who looks like a 8 year old kid, I have no idea why he's even on the team, I have yet to see the kid actually play a game. And of course to top it all of we have Bella's 2 best friends who are always there for her in case little miss perfect ever feels lonely. This show was a pretty big disappointment and I'm getting tired of seeing these new shows about a girl joining a man's sport and then dominating everyone, I mean I understand that gender equality is important but this is ridiculous. This show is an exact rip off from Life with Boys a previous Nick show where a girl decides to join the wrestling team and faces a lot of backlash but eventually becomes the star.In conclusion, Nickelodeon please create shows worth watching instead of just using the same god damn premise in all your shows.

This perhaps started out as a means to encourage female empowerment, and turned out to be another stereotypical bs, unfortunately. I did have this feeling when the trailer came out. The main character got onto the football team and was the reason the team won - excellent, felt good. And then this same child puts LIPSTICK to school, and just had to show up in a "glittery, pink" shirt under her football uniform.Why? This show is basically inserting even more false stereotypes, such as that 'girls' love 'glitter' and 'pink' and cannot live without 'makeup'. What a shame. And when she gets her personal space in the locker room, it's completely pink, and full of flowers.The word 'girly' itself is a complete stereotype - and this show does a great job of enforcing this rubbish and inaccurate stereotype.Perhaps this kind of reinforcement is what forces young girls to become what these stereotypes present, and then, in a way, these false stereotypes become 'real'. One is not 'born' into liking flowers, pink, and makeup - girls are brainwashed to think they are 'supposed to'. A big shame.1/10, hands up.
