Off the field sports movie

Rating: 7/10 (27 September 2012)

How refreshing... you mean that there are folks who have lives in sports movies other than the athletes? You mean that there are father/daughter relationships that are not perfect? What an idea! I will admit that I was really frustrated with Mr. E for his RNC antics, but decided to check out this movie anyway. I will also admit that when he was tossing furniture in one of the opening scenes, I got a little nervous, but I kept my seat to see a movie that I thoroughly enjoyed.
The complex relationship between the father and daughter confused me at times, but I cannot say that the same is not true about my own parental relationships. All of the characters that you were supposed to love, you loved. All of the characters that you hated to like were cool as well. And, definitely, I hated ALL of the characters that I was supposed to hate.
I highly recommend Trouble for anyone - it really caused me to take a closer look at my own desires to climb the career success level, parental relationships, and dependence on technology. The ending seemed a bit too rushed for me...
