Mediocre film in which a successful sportsman doesn't know he has a 7-year-old daughter until she shows up on his doorstep. Nice casting of Dwayne Johnson here and the interaction between him and the girl is nice. However, the humor is too forced and the story in which there is too little progress does not interest you at all (especially not because it goes on too long, including a sentimental last part).

Very successful.
From a time when Johnson wasn't just playing the same character. This role forces him to further ends, also using some of his more subtle acting talent. I never claimed that Johnson can't act. I have claimed in the past that he always plays the same role, but here it is slightly different.
I didn't expect to ever see him in a childish role and I wouldn't expect to see him again anytime soon. Explosive action movies with a monster budget (to afford it) now seem to be the primary focus. That's why movies like The Game Plan are extra fun for me to watch. A film in which everyone seems to be in the right place and in which a very young Pettis manages to make a decent impression.
Despite the fact that the morale has been chewed up and the creativity is quite hard to find, this film manages to have a little more effect than the average film of this caliber. The more dramatic side of the story catches on, the social criticism is never boring and the flourishing situation between father and daughter entertains at all times. Towards the end it even manages to touch it a bit.
Who am I to complain then? It is not a film that will stay with me for a long time, but it is a film that is nice and cozy to watch. A film that always manages to find the balance between its elements, while other films have significantly more trouble with that. I am positively surprised and can judge the film without shame with a more than satisfactory.

It's funny, adorable, romantic and exciting. It's for everyone, kids, men and woman. Even my dogs like the football in it lol. I love the cast too. We named our dog after Cooper lol. Just as dumb. Anyway, go watch this movie it's awesome!!!
