Celtic Pride Ratings & Reviews
匚卂尺ㄥ
June 12, 2025
Two die-hard Boston Celtic fans go out of their way to mess up the star player before game 7 of the Finals, and then accidently kidnap him. Not deep, but it doesn't have to be. A movie that a good sports fan would find as humorous, but a movie fan would only find forgetable. Akroyd, Stern, and Wayans all turn in entertaining performances, but the true star of the movie is.... Christopher McDonald. He made me laugh my head off with the "Uhhhhhhh I hate my life" line. Akroyd doing the "Shakacon" thing was hillarious, as was his dream.
Variety
Joe Leydon
An uneven but largely likable basketball-themed comedy.
TV Guide
Celtic Pride supplies predictably lowbrow yocks for jocks, and its rather disturbing racial implications go entirely unacknowledged.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
The outcome is deeply unsatisfying.

Scott Weinberg
A desperately unfunny comedy, and what's worse is that the premise really COULD have been something solid!
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
Dismal attempt at basketball comedy
Henderson Home News (Henderson, NV)
Kevin Fiddler
Kind of funny, especially for Celtic fans.

Christopher Null
This is one film that won't appeal to either sports or comedy fans.
Los Angeles Times
Jack Mathews
This is a bad time for NBA fans in Boston. Just as their beloved Celtics are about to wrap up a dismal season, with nearly 50 losses and no berth in the playoffs, Hollywood comes out with a comedy about the Celtics that's even worse than the team.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Celtic Pride has ingredients that could have made for a tough knockabout farce. Unfortunately, the film, directed by Tom De Cerchio from a screenplay by Judd Apatow, doesn't know the meaning of the term 'light touch.'
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Movies like this could start giving sports a bad name.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
Not only is the picture woefully short on laughs, it's also coarse, overbearing and, in places, downright insulting.
Houston Chronicle
Jeff Millar
Does De Cerchio have a future at Disney or what?
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Chris Hicks
Celtic Pride isn't the worst sports comedy ever made, but it certainly could have been better.
