The Game Plan (2007)

Oh, boy. A cocky celebrity connects with a child who warms his heart. Nope, we have NEVER seen this movie before. Except we have. Multiple times. Although this movie isn't *terrible*, it certainly doesn't have anything going for it. Madison Pettis is annoyingly precocious, the plot is predictable every step of the way, and there are far too moments that clearly went like this in the writers' minds: "Hey. You know what would be funny? If we could make the main character look stupid. How about [insert dumb idea]? Okay, yeah, I know there's no plot reason whatsoever for that to happen, but, hey, it'd make him look stupid! And it might be funny!" Except it's not. 1.5 stars.
