The four-minute video didn’t exactly receive rave reviews from sports fans, with many laughing at the acting from Lynch and the others in the film. FanSided’s Cameron La Fontaine reviewed the trailer and wrote that the movie “just looks absolutely horrible.”
It turns out that sports fans aren’t alone in thinking the film looks terrible. According to TMZ, Lynch himself thinks the Mario Bobino-directed movie is a mess and must be changed before being released.
"“It was the quality, It doesn’t look like some sh*t nobody would want their name attached to” … one source close to Marshawn tells us.We’re told Marshawn thought the film (which was his idea) was going to look like a big budget Hollywood affair … but, in his cinematic opinion, ultimately felt the sound, editing, and lighting were “not good at all.”"
It’s hard to imagine a worse possible scenario for the film’s director than than the star and subject of his movie deeming it terrible, but Bobino made it clear to TMZ that he plans to release the film.
"“I’ve known Marshawn his whole life. All of the sudden he’s mad at me and now doesn’t want the film to see the light of day. I’m upset by this because he fully committed to see the project through and now he wants out,” Bobino tells us.Mario says he met with some of Lynch’s reps Wednesday and temporarily agreed to remove the clip from the Internet while he makes some changes … but insists the movie is coming out “no matter what.”"
Considering how doomed this film looks, it’s unlikely Bobino will be able to make the necessary changes to appease Lynch, which means we might have scenario in which this film is released again its subject’s will.
Perhaps this incident will drive the Seahawks running back to talk to the media in order to tell his story in an effective manner.
