Sports fans and animation lovers are in for a treat with the latest animated film “GOAT,” co-produced by Warriors superstar Stephen Curry. The movie brings together a star-studded voice cast and an innovative storyline that goes beyond typical sports narratives.
Set in the vibrant animated world of Vineland, the film follows Will, a young goat struggling to make his mark on the professional sports team called the Thorns. Voiced by Caleb McLaughlin, Will faces challenges from his aging idol Jett Filmore, portrayed by Gabrielle Union, as he navigates the competitive world of roarball - a high-energy sport that blends elements of basketball and rollerball.
The film’s directors, Tyree Dillihay and Adam Rosette, have crafted a dynamic world populated by an impressive ensemble of voice talents. Notable performers include Nick Kroll, David Harbour, and even the Currys themselves - Stephen and Ayesha - adding a personal touch to the project.
What sets “GOAT” apart is its nuanced approach to storytelling. While the action sequences are undoubtedly energetic, the film’s most compelling moments emerge during quiet interactions between characters, exploring themes of mentorship, personal growth, and overcoming limitations.
The movie’s PG rating suggests it’s perfect for family viewing, offering entertainment that appeals to both young aspiring athletes and their parents. With its blend of humor, heart, and high-stakes sports action, “GOAT” represents an exciting venture into animated storytelling that extends beyond traditional sports narratives.
For Bay Area sports enthusiasts and animation fans, this film offers a unique glimpse into Stephen Curry’s creative vision beyond the basketball court. “GOAT” is currently playing in theaters, promising an engaging experience for audiences of all ages.
