Review For Playing for Keeps
Dennis Quaid hammers away at a nothing role as Thurman's husband, an adulterous alpha dog; it's nearly identical to the one he played earlier this year in What to Expect When You're Expecting, but who's counting?J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader
These are actors due a break. Unfortunately, this comedy-drama about a kids' soccer coach boinking a bunch of desperate housewives doesn't appear to be it.
Bilge Ebiri-New York Magazine
Smarmy. Dopey. Sloppy. Lazy. Creepy. Tone-deaf. Predictable. Embarrassing. Lousy.
Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com
I'll long be haunted by Dennis Quaid's manic performance as a palm-greasing dad who seems to be under the influence of bath salts ...
Melissa Anderson-Village Voice
Playing for Keeps takes place in a tonally incoherent universe, constantly shifting between rom-com farce and mawkish family drama.
Darren Franich-Entertainment Weekly
The only thing Playing for Keeps teaches us is: Guys, forget the bars and nightclubs. Soccer moms are where the action is.
Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald
An own-goal shambles of bland characterization, comic shtick, exes-still-in-love clichés and lazy implausibilities, Playing For Keeps plays down to the ugliest American stereotype of soccer-dull to the point of brain-death.
Brian Gibson-Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada)
Did Gerard really leave the UK and a guaranteed pundit spot on Match of the Day for an automatous son and callous wife? Playing for Keeps asks difficult questions like these but provides no satisfying answers.
Ed Whitfield-The Ooh Tray
If this was a biscuit, it would be an own-label digestive, full of sugar and trans fats - but suited and booted in a glistening wrapper.
Graham Young-Birmingham Mail
The comedy has its moments but they are few, and a high-powered cast, which also includes Judy Greer and Dennis Quaid, give mostly low-powered performances.
Derek Malcolm-This is London
Even the usually reliable Dennis Quaid flounders as a fellow parent in a film that is at least slickly put together but is ultimately a sheer waste of talent.
David Aldridge-Radio Times
In the long, ignoble tradition of naff romcoms starring Butler, this stands alongside The Ugly Truth and The Bounty Hunter as the worst of its kind.
Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK]
Sadly wastes its star-studded cast and has very little to offer in the way of laughs and touching moments.
Jennifer Tate-ViewLondon
Even an actor as capable as Dennis Quaid is incapable of wading in to save it.
Graham Young-Birmingham Post
Everyone involved deserves a script with more wit, originality and sense of purpose.
Anna Smith-Time Out
Hitting our screens on New Year's Day, let's cross our fingers and hope that Playing for Keeps isn't an indication as to how the rest of 2013 will be for cinema. Best to get it out of the way early, I suppose!
Stefan Pape-HeyUGuys
Not quite as bad as it sounds, despite the corny game plan.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
Rigidly formulaic and shamelessly sentimental.
Rob Carnevale-The List
A father-son heart-tugger wrapped around a mushy reconciliation rom-com sprinkled with tinsel of shiny Hollywood supporting stars acting like they're in another movie entirely.
Neil Pond-American Profile
Garbage.
Bob Grimm-Reno News and Review
Fox hasn't penned a script since 1993's So I Married an Axe Murderer, and he apparently hasn't left his home, either ...
Brett Michel-Boston Phoenix
Another "almost there" film for Gerard Butler. Amazing that he is still coasting on his "300" fame.
Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com
... a half-hearted comedy about the perils of former professional athletes that unsuccessfully tries to force together elements of domestic melodrama and romantic farce.
Todd Jorgenson-Rotten Tomatoes
A star-studded cast and a good concept add up to less than nothing in Playing for Keeps, an attempt at a warm, family romantic comedy that, like the main character, succumbs to its vices.
Rebecca Cusey-Patheos
