This is a faith-based movie, it has a lot of "1" votes from people who detest faith-based movies, and a lot of "10" votes from fans. But objectively it is neither, probably a "5" or "6" rating is deserved. It is trite and over-simplified in places and interesting and wise in other places. I found it streaming on Amazon, I found it worthwhile. It opens with an amateur golfer, Eric Close as Paul McAllister, playing in a pro-am. He is having the round of his life, birdies the first, then the second, is nine-under after the first nine, ultimately has a 30-inch putt on 18 to finish his dream round, eighteen under. Then the gallery starts to "hum" in unison, hum-hum-hum ... then he awakes to his smart phone telling him it is time to wake up. For a person not an avid golfer that may sound very hokey but for me, I could identify. I suspect that type of dream is one all life-long golfers have. Paul, a high-powered international business man arrives late for his actual pro-am tee time, has to play with no warm-up, plays terribly, embarrasses himself. He gets mad, breaks clubs, generally making an ass of himself. All this just sets up the main story of the movie, Paul is a very flawed man and badly needs a "mulligan", maybe several of them. Mulligans in life, with his son, his estranged wife, his co-workers. And only turning back to his faith can help him get there. For me, a product of the 1950s and 1960s, the best part was seeing Pat Boone, pushing 90, in the role of the Old Pro, purveyor of great wisdom. Pat Boone as a young man was a talented and popular singer in the 50s and the 60s. As a young man he starred in the 1957 movie "April Love." As time went on he was in many more movies. He is great here in the role of the Old Pro.

It was great seeing Pat Boone doing this kind of role. Perfect fit for him. I've always liked Eric Close and he did a very good job with this role. Overall, yes it's a religous inspirational movie but if you go into it with an unbiased approach and just take it as it comes you'll find it is a good movie with a good solid life message. I'm not very religious myself but do enjoy a well written clean movie. In this day and age you don't see many so when you find one, it's good that I can leave a review for it. Not enough of these good natured good hearted movies come out. Support them so we can have more.

The greatest game - with the greatest message! I laughed - I cried .. and enjoyed every minute. A mulligan is a second chance - but the ultimate mulligan - is life changing. I love this movie - I love the message.

A parable about second chances, based on the book by Wally Armstrong and Ken Blanchard. Paul McAllister is a high powered businessman, too busy for his family, and always chasing the next big deal. Hoping to improve his gold game he meets with a man known as the Old Pro who teaches him the secret of The Mulligan. The movie is slower to start, but as the movie picked up it was fun to learn more about the game of golf, and see pieces all come together. I really liked that they didn't shy away from a strong faith-based message of hope. The Old Pro, played by Pat Boone, is such a fun character, with his plaid golfing pants, and patient way of giving out sage advice. The movie was well done, and I thought that it did a good job of showing the importance of family, honesty, and faith. Overall, I was a little unsure about this movie in the beginning as I am in no shape or form a golfer or golf enthusiast, but as the story progressed and the foundation laid at the beginning began to pay off I found myself genuinely enjoying it. By the end it had won me over. A solid movie, well acted, great plot, and a powerful message of faith, integrity and family! #TheMulliganMIN #MomentumInfluencerNetwork Many thanks to Reelworks Studios for providing a sample of the product for this review.

I watched this movie with great expectations because I read the reviews. One of the another cheesy Lifetime movies:) Guess what? Either those people who ranked that movie never watched Lifetime movies or whatever!!! Such a disappointment! If you are tired of cheesy movies, don't waste your time!!!

We saw this tonight. It was a good movie with a good message that the whole family can enjoy. I believe it just shows in theaters tonight and tomorrow (Tuesday, 4/19/2022).

My wife and I LOVED this film. It was well made,well acted,and the choreography was excellent. Pat Boone was FANTASTIC as "the mentor" to a young man who needed some guidance with his life. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this film as an EXCELLENT way to have a night out with the family and friends. It isn't too preachy,and gets it's message across in a very kind (and sometimes funny) way. I'm not going to give anything away,but if you need a "second chance" at anything in your life...go check this film out...it MAY help YOU. Toodles.

Why they refer to this as a movie is beyond me. At best it could pass as a cheaply made, boring, below average television production. C-listed actors in a completely BLAND story, which did do one thing and one thing only: it bored me and it annoyed me because of it's cheap sentiment.

I'm sorry I paid for this silly movie. I didn't realize it would be a bunch of mumbo jumbo religious nonsense. If you're an agnostic you will not enjoy this movie at all. However it was good to see Pat Boone looking so good at 94. That's actually why I watched it. But he's still the same old preachy guy, but I do have to say he looks terrific. I actually thought he was dead. He did very good in this movie and if you're into religion and idealistic unrealistic uplifting patronizing movies this is for you. I absolutely hate religious preachy movies. What makes one person better than another with their religious views?
