[6.00/10] The Way Back (2020)

The Way Back (2020)

Quick Review: Yes, it features Ben Affleck's most emotionally versatile, and arguably his best performance, convincingly portraying his troubled, grieving, and lonely protagonist who is struggling with alcoholism, whilst trying to light up his life, couching a local basketball team of youngsters, but "The Way Back" is too focused on Jack's depressing personal story to work as an uplifting sports movie, and that, along with the dismal tone, turn the whole thing into a somber drama devoid of passion.
