Reviews for The Game Plan
Somebody give Dwayne Johnson a decent role, please. Sure this is relatively inoffensive, but he's a great screen presence and deserves better.
03/07/08
Despite its cheesy story, The Game Plan has one major trump card: The Rock is actually quite good.
03/07/08
Johnson’s amiable performance makes this watchable for the target audience; namely sporty daddies and spoiled little girls primed to assimilate their lives into the Disney brand.
03/07/08
Even The Rock's immense charisma cannot save this predicatable fare.
03/07/08
Watchable comedy that manages to overcome its formulaic plot and cliche-laden script, largely thanks to Johnson being such a likeable comic actor.
03/06/08
Despite its almost painfully silly predictability, this film somehow manages to be engaging and rather enjoyable, thanks mainly to The Rock's on-screen charisma.
02/21/08
...it ultimately seems unlikely that the movie will appeal to viewers outside of its target demographic (ie pre-pubescent tots).
02/04/08
The Game Plan makes The Pacifier look like No Country for Old Men.
01/24/08
Formulaic, but watchable.
01/23/08
maudlin and manipulative
01/20/08
As a family friendly movie, The Game Plan works perfectly well.

I don't know what planet the people who put this together live on, but the behavior depicted here has nothing to do with anything recognizable as human, let alone normal.

Not great, not bad.

The film improves, but the heavy handed first half drags its mood to the end, where predictability and corn mix into a concoction as unappetising as the health smoothie Joe Kingman creates for breakfast with his disgusted little daughter
10/27/07
Neither perceptive nor authentic, it lacks genuine humour and shows what an overwritten and under-funny script, put in the hands of immature actors, can produce.
10/20/07
All fairly harmless, but outside of the kid and family target audience, also fairly forgettable.
10/19/07
You can't not like The Rock.
