... View MoreThis story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
... View MoreEach character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
... View MoreThis film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
... View MoreSara (Leah Pipes) is 15 year old, obsessed with soccer, and is a top prospect. She is rejected for the National Team development squad at first but after an injury, they're looking for a replacement. Her dad (Scott Gordon-Patterson) is almost as obsessed although her mom (Lisa Darr) isn't as sure. The family life suffers. Her best friend Tutti (Lalaine) tries to get her back to normal life. And high school photographer Josh (Drew Tyler Bell) keeps hanging around the soccer field.The production is pretty weak and so are the jokes. This starts off badly with the boys claiming that Leah Pipes is undateable. That's pushing it too far. The high school stuff is so high school. The fights and complications are all very lame. The puppy love has its charms. Leah Pipes is a perfectly nice actress. That plus the fact that the movie's heart is in the right place. It's not a complete waste of time.
... View MoreLike I said before, this week is finals weeks, so I will not have time to watch long movies at all this week so I decided to watch a kids movie that lasted a little over an hour. Her Best Move was a story of a young girl who pushes herself to be the best soccer player mainly because of her father. It was an interesting movie but poorly acted. I wouldn't recommend this movie, mainly because it really wasn't worth watching it in the first place. You could tell it was a made for TV movie or a straight to DVD movie. I'm not going to get a good selection of movies this week because of the time restriction but we'll have to see.For daily movie reviews visit: htt;//kimsmoak.com/

... View MoreYoung teen Leah Pipes is your normal average teenage girl with all kinds of interests, music, dance, and of course boys. But her dad Scott Peterson wants her to devote herself completely to women's soccer because he feels she's got the right stuff to be on the USA national team.Her life is all messed up because of Dad's single mindedness. But of course in the end it all works out for Pipes and she even gets the school newspaper photographer, Drew Tyler Bell which is sure no consolation prize. Nothing terribly out of the ordinary about this Disney Channel movie. But the cast is easy to take and the film's a decent slice of teen life.
