A very un-original and predictable movie about a high school sports star. Could have been worse though. I say B-.
"It's funny what you notice the first time you see someone, confidence, a nice smile, a little connection. What you don't see, what's impossible to know at first glance is everything else. At least everything that counts." Conor Sullivan (Lutz) is the best Lacross player on his team. The only problem is he is cocky and not a team player. When his dad is transfered across the country Conor has to start all over to make the team and prove that he is a team player. This movie is not terrible, but very cheesy and extremely predictable. Much like the recent faith-based movies all the problems in this movie seemed to be solved way to easy. To me a movie without a real push back against the lead actor seems boring and too cookie cutter like. While I can't really say anything bad about this movie because I did like it, I can't really say anything really good about it either because ten minutes in I could tell how it would end. That makes a movie boring to me. Overall, not a bad movie...
Surprisingly Good
I didn't expect to like this movie a whole lot, but I really enjoyed it. I liked seeing Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene outside of their Twilight characters. The movie was heartfelt without being too cheesy. Okay, maybe some moments were a bit cheesy, but any good movie can make it work, and this works. I'm looking forward to watching it again.
Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene Rock!
This movie was really good. I only knew Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene from "Twilight" so to see them as totally different characters in the same movie was pretty impressive. The movie was very moving. I say see it.
