Just for Kicks

This movie was okay. Enjoyable, cheesy humor, and fun. It had extremely bad acting and the Sprouse twins did a lousy job. i watch it if its on TV just to see them make a fool out of themselves.

this movie had 2 or 3 good jokes, those not intended for small children. the young twins used words such a jackasses and skid mark undies.

overall this movie deserve a 5/10 because i enjoyed the stupidness. if you want to entertain your kids, try out this movies, but i recommend a different soccer flick that is better than this one. it has a few good laughs and a predictable plot.

not the best movie.

Sydney J. Bartholomew Jr. should never be allowed to make another film again. How come people are giving budgets to people to make bad films when there are plenty of creative talented directors out there struggling to make their first feature?!

The only reason to buy/rent this film is if you think the Sprouse twins are too cute to pass on. Yes they are, and they don't disappoint here either. But trust me when I tell you, that is the only reason (and one other I'll mention in a moment)

The scenes are shabbily put together (everything looks rushed). They even used stills taken from the footage for coverage (UGH!). The music is crude with dialogue to match (this is little kid's entertainment?!)

A good director would have noticed Cole mouthing Dylan's lines in a number of the scenes and given him some coaching. If he didn't pick this up on set, it definitely should have been spotted in the dailies? Their double-takes in the scene with Cobi Jones' cameo were unbearable to watch. If I'd have been on set... Well, never mind! Two ADs too! Didn't they have a creative brain cell between them?

One little gem I spotted in all of this mess was a young actor, Tyler Hervey. Look out for him if you watch this movie. Character is "Mikey" and he plays an angry cop's kid. Got wonderful on-screen presence and would be wonderful to see him in a major role.

Anyway... Just for kicks gets 2/10.

This movie was terrible. We rented it because it looked cute. We recognized the boys from Zack and Cody, a show my kids have enjoyed for years. We were really shocked by how inappropriate this movie was for little kids. It is full of sexual innuendos. It is the little kids using the foul language and showing age inappropriate behavior regarding women. This movie is not for kids under 10. The characters in it are a bad role model for kids over 10!! There are so many good sports movies for kids. All the Sandlot movies. The Angels in the outfield. There are tons of them out there... without 9 year old saying P***ed or drooling over a woman's cleavage!

Are you kidding me? How did this get so many good ratings? When Tom Arnold is the best actor in your movie you know you have a problem. The acting was poor the outcome was obvious. Don't bother wasting time on this one. Lots of crude kid humor that was not necessary or funny and musical montages that had repeated scenes and could have been left out for a much shorter movie.

Sorry but the twins could not have been more annoying. Was there some reason this mother never knew where her kids were and didn't seem to care?

At best, this is a decent movie. I checked it out simply because Cole and Dylan were on the cover and I liked "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Clause" and "Big Daddy". In this movie, though, they were fed unbelievable lines and the acting sounded forced. Some of it sounded laughable. I actually LAUGHED when Cole went "Oh, Dyl!" to get him to shut up.

Not to mention,it was so predictable! It was known from the first few moments that Dylan and Cole's team would win. The greasy grimy guy (rudy) was obviously George Patrick Owens.

Was there humor? Yes...Some of it not acceptable for the age group (I've never heard an eight or nine-year-old say p***ed and use it correctly, let alone convincingly).

The wardrobe...The one with the glasses (I think Dylan). His wardrobe was HORRIBLE for the most part. Were they playing it along with his role as the "geek"? I didn't even realize he was suppose to be a geek until he said it.

Oh well.

Will the kids enjoy it? yeah. I even got a few "kicks" out of it...But it's nothing amazing.
