Good for the Genre

Rating: 8/10 (17 April 2006)

"The Benchwarmers" was a really cute movie. The movie's message was kept light through well timed jokes and the humor helped keep the theme from being too cheesy.
Don't go in expecting art- but if you want a good time and some laughs, this is a great film. The cast worked well together, and for once, Rob Schnider did not look like he just rolled out of bed. Jon Heder, as the helmet-clad paperboy, completely stole the show.
If you liked "50 First Dates," than you will probably also enjoy this movie.
Also, for those of you thinking of taking small children, despite the film's image, there was enough adult language to deter you from bringing in those who are very young.
