Fly the jumper (2020)

So underrated it's sad.

Even though it looks like it was produced with a small budget, 'Fly the Jumper' makes up for it tenfold with a heart-warming and inspirational storyline with accurate, likeable and realistic characters that viewers will love from start to finish. It was written perfectly, with episodes being concise to the bone, the plot never felt rushed or dragged out, and each episode ended in a way that made me want to watch more instantly. The range of characters, at first, was a little overwhelming. Honestly, I thought that some characters would be irrelevant due to episode length and size, but each and every character had great development, likeability and fulfilment by the end. Also, the OST is easily going to be listened to for the rest of my life, it's absolutely perfect! I was contemplating regarding the overall score - I was torn between a 9 and a 9.5, but now that I am thinking about it, it definitely deserves the 9.5 overall rating due to the feel-good factor you get while watching this drama, and how inspired it can make you feel. I am also seriously contemplating re-watching it already - and this is from someone who never re-watches anything!

Any cons? A few cringe scenes here and there, but nothing too extreme here, and it didn't dampen the enjoyability at all. Is the seemingly small budget a con? Not for me, at all. If anything, I think it really suited it. (By the way, I'm not 100% sure if it was shot on a low budget, I'm just saying I think it is due to the production value).

Anyways, I recommend anyone and everyone to watch 'Fly the Jumper', whether you are an avid sports fan or not! I think everyone and their grandmas will love this drama!

'Fly the Jumper' has now flown into my heart and will be cherished forever. Thank you.
