A modestly affecting reconciliation drama wrapped in a so-so sports movie by way of a misogynistic romantic comedy, Playing for Keeps can't stop tripping all over itself.
Full reviewRomantic comedy with Jessica Biel, Uma Thurman, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Gerard Butler as a luckless and divorced former soccer star who returns home to rebuild his life and reconnect with his son. Looking for a way to rebuild the relationship, he gets roped into coaching the boy’s soccer team. But his attempt to finally become an "adult" are side-tracked by temptations from the attractive soccer mums who pursue him at every turn. From the director of The Pursuit of Happyness.
