Goofs:

Factual errors: When the film opens, the football game being played is in the 4th quarter. Take a look at the player’s uniforms. The white pants are not dirty at all. After an hour of playing on grass all the players' uniforms would not be still clean.

Quotes:

Stella Peck: How long has it been since you ate one of your own Fanny's burgers?
[takes a bite]
Stella Peck: Chew long I'd say.

A very good family movie

This film was very good. A great family movie with the only purpose of entertaining people with that unique touch that only Disney can give. It has a very simple yet enjoyable story about a famous football player who's life is all about football, parties, women and his dog apparently a very good life but also a very lonely one when someday a girl appears at his door telling that he is her dad and there's where he must learn how to be a parent and at the same time to live. The cast is good. The Rock proves that he is more than an action hero, he also can do comedy in a very good way, the little girl Madison Pettis is so cute and his acting is great, she looks very natural. Roselyn Sanchez delivers a good supporting role as the girl's ballet teacher and Kyra Sedgwick although it was a short performance it was also very convincing. In conclusion, a very good family that you will enjoy
