This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Rodney Dangerfield had at this point become known for playing sympathetic losers who go to outrageous lengths to climb the ladder of success. Here he is Chester Lee, a salesman with an understanding fiancée and a typical apathetic stepson. While trying to get a promotion, he somehow gets himself into coaching his bosses' championship soccer team, The Ladybugs. He accepts, merely on hearing the team's legacy. He soon finds out that all but one of the players is new to the team and know even less than he does. He then enlists the help of his stepson, a gifted soccer player, having him pose as a girl. The film is funny enough, as Dangerfield's wit carries it through. The b plot of the stepson's crush, who is also the bosses daughter,r is thrown in for teen appeal. This movie does not pretend to be anything more than a harmless farce, and is all the better for it.

This dreary comedy is just not funny. Think about it--you know you are in trouble when the plot involves having a boy dress like a girl to play soccer AND the supporting actress is Jackée Harry. Plus, the movie is just very poorly written with most of its jokes being crude and stupid. You also know you are in trouble when one of these painfully unfunny moments is when Rodney is in the dressing room with this young boy and is helping him dress up like a girl--and the dialog is written as if he's having sex with this child. Wow--child molester humor--now that's sure to create a lot of laughs,...if you're an idiot or a child molester.It's really a shame, as Dangerfield did some cute movies that were FUN. While EASY MONEY and BACK TO SCHOOL weren't terribly deep, they were good for a few laughs. This film didn't even provide one.

well i am not a fan of rodney dangerfield, but this movie he wasnt as bad as a thought it would be. being a teenager, i found the kid playing the boy and the girl was pretty cute and kept my attention throughout the whole movie. the lady that helps rodney coach the crummy girls that cant play soccer, the mom from sister sister on the disney channel, was a great match to help rodney, since they both have those kind of voices that you want to turn down the volume. it still had a predictable ending, but i liked the corny side of this movie and watch it occasionally when i see it on comedy central.

Seeing Jonathan Brandis acting as a girl in a dress really makes up for the severe shortcomings of Rodney Dangerfield acting like a complete idiot. Weird thing is that in the wig and white dress Brandis actually looks like a real girl until he starts to speak! The film had good potential until they casted Dangerfield in the role (is he some kind of american pervy Chubby Brown?) turning a childs movie into a movie for no particular age group due to the adult humour he injects. The storyline had good potential in the first half where Brandis agrees to act as a girl to help out the girls football team and also to get closer to his crush who is on the team, although the storyline is probably a bit far fetched (how many boys would go to such lengths just to get close to another girl?) until Brandis disappears for a while from the film after his mum sees him in a dress and the film goes off at a weird tangent showing a rival girls football team preparing with their military style coach and we all thought for a minute that that team would be an all-male female impersonators football team. The film ending was rather poor as well seeing the goal (sorry about the pun) was that Brandis wanted the girl and the girls football team wanted him and neither subject was well played out.
