Our take
Sidelined 2: Intercepted is a PG-13/TV-14 college romance sequel on Prime Video and Tubi. Football star Drayton and dancer Dallas test long-distance love with make-out scenes stopping at bra and shirtless, party drinking, and mild profanity. Misogynistic locker-room talk appears briefly. Fine for teens who liked the first film

Communication, respect, and growing up together

- They communicate more maturely this time. What makes arguments productive?
- Party scenes show drinking. How does the film treat underage or new-adult drinking?
