Movie Reviews of Just for Kicks
Movie Review: It's Got Soccer, It's Got the Sprouse Twins - Say No More!
Summary: 5 Stars
Because I was so keen to see this movie, I pre-ordered it months before its release - and it's finally arrived!!!
I always try to give a thoughtful and honest opinion about any movie I've seen, and this will be no exception. However, I really should start by explaining that I am a huge fan of soccer, and an even bigger fan of the Sprouse twins (the cute kid in `Big Daddy'). Given that `Just 4 Kicks' stars Dylan and Cole Sprouse, and that the whole film is centered on the game of soccer; you'll have to forgive me for awarding it the maximum five stars before the DVD has even come out of its shrink-wrap!
Cole and Dylan Martin adore the game of soccer; they have posters on their bedroom walls and videos of classic games. They even have a very precious soccer ball, which their dad brought back from Europe! But when it comes to actually playing the game, the twins are just plain lousy. And to make matters worse, they're left with only their mom for a coach after their dad (Tom Arnold) leaves for an important business trip. But, after half the team have quit and all seems lost, Cole and Dylan discover the magic soccer talents of an unlikely auto-mechanic named Rudy (Bill Dawes). Rudy slowly warms to the idea of kicking a soccer ball once again, and finds himself coaching the Martin twins' team. All is going well until Cole and Dylan learn of Rudy's past - a past that is about to catch up with him. Now he must choose between life-on-the-run and playing the game he loves so much!
Just 4 Kicks works well on many levels. It's very family orientated and makes a fantastic movie for kids, as it focuses on key issues such as teamwork and loyalty, and how things can work out if you try hard enough. It's also a very funny film with many amusing and sometimes touching moments. You certainly don't need to know anything about soccer to understand the plot. My young nephew saw this film from start to finish and has been watching it ever since! It's very unusual that he'll sit through a full-length film - even for the first time.
Die-hard soccer fans will really appreciate the cameo appearance of Major League Soccer star, Corbi Jones as the delivery guy. He just can't resist the temptation to have a few kicks of the twins' soccer ball while their heads are turned the other way!
Five stars are justified - even if, unlike me, you're not a fan of soccer or the Sprouse twins. It's great family entertainment all the way!
