Movie reivew of The Game Plan

Saw The Game Plan on DVD, for our family movie night.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson plays an egocentric football quarterback, who is a bachelor -- but then a young daughter (who he did not know existed) turns up on his doorstep for a month.

As with all movies of this type, he is slowly reformed and becomes a better person (and a pretty decent dad).

From what I recall, no swearing, sexual things, or violence (except for some slapstick-ish falls, and some football “crunches” on the field.


I liked it **way** better than I expected to.


Worth renting if you have young kids; possibly worth seeing even if you're a grown-up: it's kinda sweet.
