When I first saw the preview of The Rock in this formula Disney movie meant to attract families, I sorta cringed. My friend, on the other hand, who loves wrestlers and Disney stuff was very excited to see this one. So it was that we both decided to see this one after playing for several weeks. While watching during many parts of the first hour, I did feel a little wincing during many of the cutesy scenes between the lead character and the little girl who reveals herself as his daughter and thought many of the slapstick scenes were so obvious. But as the story went on and many entertaining set pieces like The Rock and the girl doing ballet in front of nearly all of his teammates, his singing his idol Elvis' "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" to her, or his teammates with the little girl playing super soaker with him were coming on, I was thoroughly enjoying myself to the point that I was thinking, "Hey, this is not so bad at all!" So on that note, for anyone with families or who just want a good clean comedy, I highly recommended The Game Plan! With sportscaster Marv Albert and Kyra Sedgwick who's a little amusing as The Rock's agent.
