Movie Review by B Movie Ben
April 14th, 2007

Another chance to see Halle Berry

OK, not the greatest movie in the world, and the outcome is fairly predictable, but it was another opportunity to see Halle Berry, and I cannot pass that up. Besides that, I am trying to get my teaching certificate, so I watch teacher movies, no matter how silly.

I understand that it is also based upon a true story.

In addition, it also featured Eliza Dushku (Buffy, Tru Calling), Casey Affleck (brother of Ben), and James Belushi.

It wasn't memorable, but it was cute and not a total waste of time. Also, it was written by Barry Morrow, a member of the Association of Retarded Citizens, the National Association of Social Workers, and the Austism Society of America - a lifelong advocate for the rights of persons with disabilities. That puts him solidly in my camp as I am also a member of NASW and work with the developmentally disabled. Morrow won an Oscar for writing Rain Man.

I liked the Samoan kid. Who doesn't love seeing a fat Samoan kid in a solar powered car bringing his team into the home stretch? Gotta love that at least. The rest of it is rather forgettable, but I liked that kid.

The samoan kid was great, but Halle Berry and Eliza Dushku forgettable?
