How excited will we get about a Disney sports movie?

Jonathan Bogart: When I was a kid, cheesy Disney sports movies didn’t even get their own theme songs: The Mighty Ducks just uses “We Will Rock You” over the closing credits. So I guess in one very limited sense this is a step up for one of the entities or concepts involved.

Iain Mew: He sounds suitably like a man pushing himself to run on past the pain barrier. Pain is maybe a bit harsh as a description of the tame rock he’s working with, but it is dull and attritional.

Katherine St Asaph: Amiable skank; more of the spoken-word, or at least more dynamic variation, and it’d merit a better adjective.

Alfred Soto: He does the mild skank better than most, enough to forget how Juanes sounds like “Bent”-era Rob Thomas these days.

Edward Okulicz: In all honesty, this sounds like the instrumental breaks of “La Camisa Negra” have been expanded out to a song of their own. But that was such a catchy song that a subset of it works pretty well.

Juana Giaimo: I understand the need to modernize the melodramatic love song, but I don’t think this is the right way. It’s not catchy nor sincere and any guest rapper would have probably benefited it.

Thomas Inskeep: Propulsive, gently loping uptempo pop-rocker with a cute little chorus guitar figure and not much else that stands out.
