THE VERDICT
Kevin Costner and director Ivan Reitman are a good team for Draft Day, which makes the best of a story riddled with sports movie cliches.
7.1=GOOD
Costner delivers another fine performance in director Ivan Reitman's football dramedy Draft Day.
+Kevin Costner nails every beat with a combo of warmth, fury, and good fun.
+Ivan Reitman's cross-cutting tactics make a movie about football contracts into a movie about football.
+The supporting cast bounces off Costner at every turn, adding to the velocity.
– Tired tropes are still tired tropes; We know where Draft Day is going from minute one.
