Leatherheads, starring George Clooney and Renee Zellweger kicks off as a classic comedy about the early forms of pro football. Mixed with the quick wittiness of Clooney and the equally sly Zellweger, Leatherheads boasts loads of laughter and eyebrow-raising talent.George Clooney is the man. I mean, this guy has the sly-est talent and witty humor that carries on to every film he makes. And yes, Clooney directed this one, and even if you didn't know that, if you're familiar with Clooney, you'll know anyway. Like Clint Eastwood, who acted then directed as well, George has definitely hit the bullseye with this film. It's entirely enjoyable to watch and laugh with.
I screened this just tonite, after watching part of August and completely choosing this over it, since the movie was going nowhere. The only thing August had was Josh Hartnett, big deal. I've seen it before, where they make some story then stick one or two big timers in it to sell it, but if the story sucks, then it looks bad on the actors/actresses rep. Nope, everything stayed the same with Hartnett. All I can think of is Pearl Harbor. Nuff said.
Rated PG-13 for brief strong language.
7.9/10
