    6 / 10
    One cannot emphasize enough just how unimportant this movie really is. It`s a typical American jock-princess love story. Having said that, nothing more really needs to be said.
    The video transfer is ok. There are no compression signs and the picture is clear of any defects.
    The DD 5.1 soundtrack is ok as well. The surrounds are used occasionally, particularly during the game scenes.
    The menus are still with sound.
    The extras include a commentary and 10 deleted scenes.
    Bottom line - gee, see if you can guess how this movie ends. Wow, it`s so un-predictable. Yeah, right... . Skip it.
