"GOAT" is a kids film and it is a sports film. It follows the formula of both and that's what makes it work.
The story follows Will (Caleb McLaughlin) who is the given the opportunity of a lifetime when Flo (Jenifer Lewis) the owner of his favorite Roarball team hires him as the team's sixth player.
Jett Fillmore (Gabrielle Union) is the team's star player. She is unhappy with Will's addition as he is an amateur and his height is a big disadvantage. While she had been asking for a new teammate, she had been hoping for a "big".
The teams are all playing for the Claw trophy. Through it all we get some wild animation, some tender moments between Will, Jett and their other teammates and a triumphant ending that will have everyone cheering.
3.5 out of 5 stars.
