I saw this movie this evening in a second run house on discount nite, so the theater was more full than it would have been on another day. This is important to note because there were a fair number of parents with children in the audience who seemed to enjoy the movie; one patron gave a solo standing ovation at the end. The movie was not side splitting funny, but it had a lot of nice chuckle moments, a few laugh out loud moments, and several really touching moments. Overall, I found it enjoyable, especially the impressive comedic range of Madison and Dwayne Johnson. The tension between Joe and the dance teacher was nice. I was kind of confused by Morris Chestnut's character. The football scenes were a little stiff, jerky, and seemed over processed with CGI. I will probably add this to my family video collection. I think my grandson will like it because he likes the Sophie character that Madison plays on Disney's Cory in the House series. Nice!
