Movie Review: Soccer Mom

Friday, December 18, 2009
Synopsis: Widowed Wendy Handler longs to be closer to her thirteen year old daughter, soccer obsessed Becca, so she concocts an elaborate disguise, that of Italian star Lorenzo Fulograppa, and becomes the new 'star' of the girls' soccer team.

Starring: Missi Pyle, Emily Osment, Kristen Wilson, Percy 'Master P' P, Elon Gold
Directed by: Gregory McClatchy
U.S. Rating: PG

I'm not a big fan of these kind of cheesy kids movies, even though, I can say that this film was quite entertaining. Missi Pyle played a funny lead role in this film as the mother and Lorenzo Vincenzo, a famous international soccer player from Italy. Trying to help and motivate her daughter , Missi Pyle will do everything and anything to make her daughter enjoy what she loves the most, soccer. A cheesy plot but really entertaining and freshly played. A good option for a quiet afternoon with the kids.

What did I like from this movie?

1. The make-up was really funny! She actually looked like the guy she was trying to represent
2. As said, it is a cheesy but fresh plot, easy to watch

What did I dislike from this movie?

1. Why does every single movie about soccer is represented by women?

I would rate this movie with a 3/5
