A 2ND CHANCE (All-Media World-Wide 2012)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì 

A 2^nd Chance—good storyline, simple and straightforward —comes from Australia. This is a child/adult share film. It’s cute, entertaining, and worth a watch. The writing is solid, the acting good, and the presentation well done. If the audience wants to follow the story of Maddy, her coaches, and her girl buddies, there is a 2019 sequel A Second Chance: Rivals! available for viewing.
