It's a wacky comedy about the hottest sport in the country: Pickleball! Except they forgot the comedy.
Jake Johnson plays Dusty "The Hammer" Boyd a former child tennis prodigy who was playing the actual tennis star Andy Roddick in a teen tennis championship when tragedy struck. Years later he is still trying to get his game back at his father's tennis club. He is forced to play the lesser sport of pickleball as a means to rehab his wrist. During play he learns a valuable lesson about....blah blah blah. There is a tennis championship to add pickleball courses at the club. Andy Roddick reappears. And John McEnroe appears to do play by play. It's all very dumb The best thing about the film is McEnroe doing play by play. And McEnroe looks good because everything else is so bad. Poor Ed Harris doing an obvious paycheck job tries to bring a little life to his role, but no.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
