Saw it on the plane back to Sydney...

it's pretty damn good; Paul Betany and Kirsten Dunst had good chemistry and the movie worked on a not-annoying level (see: Love actually..etc). More Notting Hill like with its American beau angle. Good camera work/cinematography and the tennis matches were very well executed/exciting. Belivable romance + likable leads made it enjoyable. That last match + cutting + music was too good. Highly recommended.

OMG, i just finished watching it like 10mins ago. It's a good film, It's extremely well filmed, I agree that the chemistry was good between Betany and Dunst, as already mentioned...very Nothing Hill like.

I recently saw the movie (also on a plane..hmm).
I thought it was alright.

Nothing special and highly predictable, but not bad.
Dunst's character is a little too loose - that sorta ruined things.

As a tennis movie, it was pretty damn good. Movies about sports usually make things overly dramatic, but the tennis they show in the movie is pretty realistic, if not a little over the top. I like the way we can hear what the main character (whatever his name) thinks during a match. And the ending is quite sweet.

there was a brief spell of rain during movie.
Paul's character prays to god during the finals because he was fucking up big time and then it rains and play is suspended and he goes to the locker room and .... :) watch it yourself.. ^_^
