I was prepared for a wonderful movie with two of my favorite actors and what I got was an average movie (well photographed however) with my two actors playing themselves. I was never able to get into the pourly written script, silly acting job of the two leads. Save your money and PERHAPS rent it later when it comes out on DVD in about 6 weeks!

Loved it!!!! How can you miss with a cast including George Clooney and Renee Zellweger? Clooney is so charming and Zellweger adorable on screen but the fireworks start with rapid fire banter between Clooney and Zellweger that you feel like you are watching Tracy and Hepburn incarnate. This sport and screwball comedy was just what a needed after a terrible week. The customes and sets really add to this lighthearted time piece. I highly reccommend it to everyone!

great movie liked not having to listen to cuss words

I understand why people on this site are saying that "Leatherheads" is boring. It's not today's typical comedy or sports movie. You will like this movie if: 1) you like '20s and '30s style humor and witty dialogue 2) you like George Clooney, Renee Zellweger, and John Krasinski 3) you are interested in how professional football got started 4) you're in the mood for something not too heavy or any combination of the above. I personally enjoyed the movie (did not find it boring) and loved the prank at the end. Go and have fun!

Why, oh why, do people rate movies they haven't seen!?!?!? This isn't helpful and it is aggravating to those of us who look to the fan reviews for true reviews of movies. "Review" means you have reviewed it. Please wait until after you have seen the movie to give us something worthwhile to read. Thank you very much!!
