If you live in the United States — hell, if you’ve heard of the United States — you probably know that this country has a passion for football that borders on religious. As is said many times in Him, the wildly underwhelming football horror film by Justin Tipping, even though people say “God, family, football,” that is probably in the wrong order for many. That’s the basic premise of Him, that love for football at its extremes can be like a religion, from the athletes who give their bodies and well-being for the sake of sport, to the fans who worship at the altar of their favorite teams and players. It’s a solid concept, yet that’s as deep as Tipping’s film ever dares to go, even if it occasionally hints at larger, more important points that are almost completely avoided.
