Boasts enough comedy to get by, ensuring reasonable entertainment for its target audience.

There are moments where "The Game Plan" works, mostly involving Johnson, but for the most part, this is a forgettable film that won't even matter come October.

In many ways, The Game Plan is really just a big-budget, feature-film version of a Disney Channel Original Movie.

The Rock scores in cute (if predictable) comedy.

A barf-inducer. A hurl-promoter. A projectile-vomit-stimulator.

Somebody give Dwayne Johnson a decent role, please. Sure this is relatively inoffensive, but he's a great screen presence and deserves better.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Mar 7, 2008

Despite its cheesy story, The Game Plan has one major trump card: The Rock is actually quite good.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 7, 2008

Johnson's amiable performance makes this watchable for the target audience; namely sporty daddies and spoiled little girls primed to assimilate their lives into the Disney brand.

| Original Score: 2/6 | Mar 7, 2008

Even The Rock's immense charisma cannot save this predicatable fare.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 7, 2008

Watchable comedy that manages to overcome its formulaic plot and cliche-laden script, largely thanks to Johnson being such a likeable comic actor.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 6, 2008

Despite its almost painfully silly predictability, this film somehow manages to be engaging and rather enjoyable, thanks mainly to The Rock's on-screen charisma.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 21, 2008

...it ultimately seems unlikely that the movie will appeal to viewers outside of its target demographic (ie pre-pubescent tots).

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 4, 2008

The Game Plan makes The Pacifier look like No Country for Old Men.

| Original Score: 0.5/4 | Jan 24, 2008

Formulaic, but watchable.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 23, 2008

maudlin and manipulative
