Movie Reviews of Soccer Mom
Movie Review: soccer film
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm not sure what to think about Soccer Mom to be totally honest. I laughed enough times that I found myself enjoying it, but that doesn't change the fact the storyline definitely has a low budget feel to it.
The film definitely contains humor, though I must admit I didn't really catch any of the sexual references that many others apparently have. If that's the case, yeah, you probably shouldn't let your teens watch this movie.
The goofy Italian guy was hilarious most of the time, as was the majority of the little things such as the soccer moms kids letting the family dog eat peanut butter and slobber all over the place, haha.
There *is* a positive message about not giving up when it comes to playing the game of soccer poorly. Gotta give the film a little bit of credit there. Not the greatest film in the world, but decent enough for a rental.
Movie Review: Movie Fun for the Entire Family
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this movie based on a recommendation from a friend. My wife and I thought it was well done and funny. My young daughters especially enjoyed watching Emily Osment and the soccer scenes. The story is not the most original, but it has a warm message driving it. Missi Pyle does a great job as Wendy and as Lorenzo. We really felt she cared about her daughter's happiness. It was fun to watch, and we laughed a lot.
Movie Review: Cute family movie
Summary: 4 Stars
Soccer Mom is a cute family movie that showcases Missie Pyle's range and better than average acting skills. Take out the silly Italian accents and formula driven plot and focus on the interactions and family narrative and you have a pretty good movie. All in all a good movie.Movie Review: Tootsie meets Beckham
Summary: 3 Stars
Sometimes corny, generally predictable, Soccer Mom is nonetheless a surprisingly entertaining. In a plot twist reminiscent of Tootsie, a suburban soccer mom dresses up as an Italian soccer star to impress her daughter's team. This film isn't flashy and the acting won't leave you floored, but it does the job.
I suspect this will be a good movie for older kids/younger teens. I found the complaints about sexual innuendos to be nonsense. The whole point of the plot twist is that the female does not realize she's kissing the mom, but thinks she's kissing a soccer star. It's not a lesbian kiss.
Movie Review: Could have been good
Summary: 2 Stars
If you don't mind multiple unnecessary sexual innuendos, then by all means plop your kids in front of this one. I'm not sure who this movie was supposed to be geared for, but I had to fast forward through a bunch for my 11 & 12 year old girls. I guess I'm a little old fashioned, but I have to say I'm getting tired of even PG movies being filled with it. Examples? Homosexual hairstylists going on and on about how badly they want this male coach. A divorcee going on and on about who her husband is dating and rubbing all over the woman dressed as a coach. Then the big kiss between these two women. Anyhoo, if that doesn't bother you, then, it's a kinda cute movie.
