What a disappointment when I realized Kevin Costner wasn't being coerced by James Earl Jones into building a golf course.

There's a strain of moralism increasingly common in "criticism" that would see this film condemned for its romantic subplot because Russo's character is ostensibly Costner's psychiatrist (or because Costner is ostensibly Russo's golf teacher). These are the same people who write Vox thinkpieces on how "FRIENDS sold us lies about friendship", as if anyone who "bought" anything from a goddamned sitcom doesn't deserve to have all their screens eaten by Fatt LeBlanc. I don't have many friends left.

Kevin Costner sports movies are made for Super Bowl Halftime Show fans. Understanding or even enjoying sports plays no part of the equation. Trying to write a better review than Spleen's is fruitless. I think I sank all twelve shots in the water.

A film about golf. How exciting... not.

This is the best work that Costner, Russo, Johnson, and Cheech have ever done. Roy's meltdown on the 72nd hole came out of nowhere and was one of the most painful movie moments I've ever seen upon first viewing. And I'm so glad they avoided the predictable and cliched ending it could have had because of it! You get the feeling that Costner isn't even acting, that this is what his personality actually is in real life.

Ruso and Costner have genuine chemistry together
