Gerard Butler, Jessica Biel, Uma Thurman, Catherine
Zeta-Jones and Dennis Quaid star in Playing For Keeps, a romantic comedy about a
charming, down-on-his luck former soccer star (Butler) who returns home to put
his life back together. Looking for a way to rebuild his relationship with his
son, he gets roped into coaching the boy�s soccer team. But his attempts to
finally become an "adult" are met with hilarious challenges from the attractive
"soccer moms" who pursue him at every turn.
This was a decent but
kind of pointless watch. Good characters - but possibly too many of them thrown
in to the world of relationships and parenting. It was a little muddled at
times but I wasn't bored out of my mind watching it or thinking of other things
I could be doing.
Would I recommend it? No. Not because it was bad but
at this time of year when there are so many other things that you could be doing
- why bother with this? Wait for cable.
