"We Are the Brooklyn Saints" is a documentary series following a youth football program in the heart of inner-city Brooklyn. Youth programs work, and "We Are The Brooklyn Saints" demonstrates a close-knit and an up-close documentary approach about kindness and having positive goals. It shows how sport goes beyond competition and by nature, it can become a safe haven of community. "A loss is not a loss" - it's a chance to learn, mature, and develop, and the series does well to get those themes across. The documentary series takes its time to get to know influential adults, but it focuses too much on two players D-lo and Kenan, while this should be about the whole team. While Brooklyn Saints is a competent enough docu-series, it loses some intensity that could have made it a home run.
