Pretty good, entertaining movie. I mainly bought it for all the Paul Bettany scenes, but will keep your attention. Tennis people will probably enjoy it and Bettany fans definately will. Shows that he is a good actor and can carry a movie. Kirsten Dunst, Sam Neill and Jon Favreau are also very good. Basically, in a nutshell: girl and boy fall for each other, girls dad forbids romance due to intense Wimbledon playing, and love must find a way. Kind of predictable, but good anyway. Worth a watch!
I thought this movie was funny - Paul Bettany and Kirsten Dunst are a perfect screen pair, and the humor was lighthearted and dry. The movie was good, but it was hard to see the sincere "romance" part of the "romantic comedy" genre. It sped through the realationship like a first date, leaving little unsaid and undone; however, the final scenes close as I thought and hoped they would. And the ending was great - more romantic comedies should end that way.
Awesome sauce what's that?

EXCELLENT PRICE ON EBAY FOR THIS DVD.... AND I AM ALSO A FAN OF PAUL BETTANY. THIS FILM IS ENTERTAINING. THE TENNIS MATCHES THAT ARE DEPICTED ON THE FILM ARE ORCHESTRATED WELL. THE ACTORS LOOKED LIKE THEY ARE PROS. THERE ARE SOME WITTY DIALOGUE....IT'S A FEEL GOOD MOVIE FOR A RAINY SUNDAY AFTERNOON.
I wanted to give this movie as a gift to my 15 year old daughter for Christmas, for she plays tennis herself. I saw it advertised for cheap at an electronics store this past season. However, they were sold out when I arrived. I really did not want to spend hours hunting it down at another store and it was super inexpensive on ebay. No waiting, no lines. Super convenient. Thank you!!!
