It's interesting because it's a comedy without real comedians at the lead role

Rating: 6/10 (13 March 2015)

The story is pretty much the same as many other sports comedy movies, which are about the long shot at beating the overwhelming odds and pressure while at the same time uniting a very differentiated team. The romance angle is nicely put just as the sweetener and didn't go influencing the bigger story so much, despite the usual victory kiss. What makes this movie very interesting for me is that Keanu Reeves, Gene Hackman, and even Brooke Langton are not necessarily comedians, though they play the lead and significant roles in this movie. The backing by the seasoned comedy actors like Orlando Jones nicely completes the comedic angle that the movie needs.
