Wimbledon

Two and one half stars
Kirsten Dunst, Sam Neil

Tennis never seemed this fun while I was playing it. Of course, I didn't know any Kirsten Dunst's either. The best part of Wimbledon is that it knows what it wants to be and does it well. It is first a Tennis movie, and more so a movie about the grandest of the grand slam's. The romance is secondary and the writers and producers hold true to this formula. Becasue of this, the romance is true and chemistry is good and moreover it doesn't feel contrived because the characters are true. I was almost ready to go for three stars, but Dunst is still learning to work the kinks out of her performace and there are a couple scenes that don't follow the flow or let effects distract from that flow so I withheld a half star.
