Alex & Me Movie Review and Blu-ray Giveaway #AlexandMe #AlexMorgan

Disclosure:  Warner Bros. Home Entertainment provided me with a free copy of the Blu-ray I reviewed in this Blog Post. The opinions I share are my own.

In Alex & Me soccer superstar Alex Morgan scores her full-length feature film debut. The movie, also featuring Nickelodeon star Siena Agudong, follows the uplifting story of a young female athlete who learns how you need passion, determination and self-worth to make all your dreams come true.

Teenager Reagan Willis (Agudong) has one dream – to play soccer like her hero, Alex Morgan. Her bedroom is a shrine to all things Alex, including a life-size poster of the Olympic gold medalist. Yet in the Willis house, Reagan lives in the shadow of her prep football superstar brother, Logan. When Reagan fails to make the cut of the premiere local soccer club team and is humiliated by her rival Claire, she’s certain her ship has sailed. But after accidentally hitting her head, Reagan’s poster of Alex Morgan suddenly comes to life and everything changes!

We had a family movie night last night to watch Alex & Me.  Although all of my kids have played soccer we don't have anyone that's die-hard soccer fan so I was wondering how well we would like it.  Thankfully you don't have to know anything about soccer for the movie to be enjoyable.  The story line is relate-able for kids in many areas.  It shows that you my not always make the things you try out for, but that doesn't mean you should give up on those things.  There can be new experiences just around the corner.  It also shows the importance of goal setting and how that can be inspiring to others.

As an adult I could appreciate the importance of having a dedicated space to play or practice.  I could also see how easy it is for parents to get wrapped up with one of their kids while not always seeing the needs of others.  I also liked how the relationship between Reagan and her brother developed throughout the movie.

Alex & Me is out now on Digital, Blu-ray and DVD!
