The Goodwin Games Audience Reviews

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Ensofter Overrated and overhyped
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
SnoopyStyle Benjamin Goodwin (Beau Bridges) is dead and he leaves a set of video tape will for his three children. Chloe (Becki Newton) is a failed actress who can't find her place in the world. Henry (Scott Foley) is a successful surgeon, and a failing person. He is schedule to marry but doesn't have the time to see his fiancée. Jimmy (T.J. Miller) is a bumbling petty criminal who sneaks into his daughter's room to see her despite her baby momma.Obvious the father wants the bring the trio back together and fix their lives from the grave. And it's an odd premise that sorta works. The three actors siblings do a good job. Both TJ Miller and Scott Foley fit their characters perfectly. Becki Newton is a little bit off. She always seems to have a smirk, and much smarter than her character. Although she had a big role in Carter Bays and Craig Thomas 'How I Met Your Mother'. This show only made 8 episodes.
roman-kuba I have now watched all available 7 Episodes from Goodwin Games and have to say it's definitely one of the better sitcoms in recent times. The characters are kind of freaky but really act well in their roles. It creates some funny moments and the whole plot creates interest and endless possibilities. What I really like about this series is there are no forced dramas or setup awkward situations. Everything has a really nice and enjoyable tone and every episode so far left me with a feeling of happiness. After 7 Episodes I would love to see more, and if rumors are true and it's canceled... shame on you FOX. At least one full season ( ~20 episodes ) in which you end the main plot would be great.I really recommend this series to anyone who enjoys a good sense of humor and subliminal jokes.
ckh009 My husband and I just finished watching all 7 initial episodes of The Goodwin Games and we really enjoyed it. We really like all of the characters. I find myself cheering them on through life. I want to see them ease up on the seriousness of a career, finish college, and walk away from a life of crime. I really find this show to be funny and smart. At the end of every episode I really feel good about what they accomplished! I hope Fox orders more episodes because I really look forward to seeing what happens to these three siblings. If you haven't seen this show yet it is worth the time watching it.
jonoooo This show had potential. It could of been the 'National Treasure' of television, albeit it, on a smaller scale. But from the very first episode, it just made too many errors. And those errors flooded into the second episode and only time will tell how long the flood with last.The show tries to capture the segregation of family members and documents their rekindling through the completion of a series of unimaginative scenarios that will instill in them a greater sense of unity and family.The show is not in any sense, funny. In fact, the characters are so stereotypical that we wonder whether the writers are still stuck in the early 2000s. We have a doctor, a hot actress wannabe, and the odd-one-out, mentally retarded brother.And the scenarios they're put through? A game of 'Trivia Pursuit'? WTF?! The amount of wit they try to put into the show especially through the father is extremely annoying and ridiculously cliché! Given the concept the show shouldn't have a longer air-life than one season. But I'd be surprised if they even finish of the season given the lack of quality and substance.My honest advice: despite how appealing the concept is, this REALLY IS NOT WORTH THE TIME!!!
