In 1956, JB Peña and his wife moved to the small town of Del Rio, TX, partly for a job as a school superintendent, but mostly to fulfill JB's dream of joining the prestigious, all-white Del Rio Country Club. So when JB is rejected on the basis of his skin color, he is devastated. But his world soon collides with a group of young Latino golf caddies who work at the country club, and JB is inspired by the handmade course the boys built in the country to teach themselves golf. With little experience and even fewer resources, JB convinces the boys to start their own high school golf team, starting them all on a journey where they learn that it takes more than just golf skills to make history. Based on Mustang Miracle by Humberto G. Garcia. Read More Read Less

Dwight Brown DwightBrownInk.com When you look at the big picture, at stories like the breakthrough of the San Felipe Mustangs, films like The Long Game become treasured archives. Noble missions. A reason to watch. Rated: 2.5/4 Apr 17, 2024 Full Review Joe Leydon Variety Winner of an audience award at the 2023 SXSW film fest, “The Long Game” is an utterly predictable yet thoroughly engaging period drama. Apr 13, 2024 Full Review Nell Minow RogerEbert.com Appealingly told with sincerity and taste. Rated: 3/4 Apr 12, 2024 Full Review Jayne Nelson Radio Times Golf may lack the fast action and cinematic razzle-dazzle of other sports, but the sincerity with which this tale is told ensures it's easy to invest in these young men who break boundaries with every stroke. Rated: 3/5 Jul 31, 2024 Full Review Joshua Ryan FandomWire While The Long Game primarily follows the blueprint of successful films that came before it, it stands on its own as an inspirational and entertaining entry due to the strength of its genuine writing and authentic performances. Rated: 7/10 Jul 25, 2024 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies The steady diet of clichés and glaring sports movie conventions are impossible to miss. But the resonating human spirit at the center of the story ultimately makes it a hard one to resist. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 18, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
