Movie Review: Wimbledon

Wimbledon. That's the movie my fiance and I watched earlier this
evening. We were actually undecided whether to watch this movie or
Shark Tale. But since Wimbledon was vouched by Adrian's training
instructor from Sun Microsys and we wanted to watch a feel good movie
so we then decided to watch this movie.


And to my surprise, I enjoyed it a lot. Probably its just the tennis
fan or the tennis player wannabe in me that enjoyed the movie but what
the heck, I love the bloody movie (oopps! sorry got carried away by
those Brits). Anyway, I was so into the game of Peter Colt (href="http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hc&id=1804462348&cf=gen&intl=us">Paul
Bettany of A Knight's Tale
) I gasp at every serve, every backhand,
forehand and every ace that he made. I even heard myself say "double
fault" aloud when Jake Hammond's (href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0629538/">Austin Nicols of The Day
After Tomorrow
) served for the set point and the ball bounced onto
the net. Gosh, I've never realized how much I missed watching Agassi's
game on TV.


Now, I need to edit my previous blog on things that I would do if I
won the lottery.. I'll watch all Grand Slam tournaments (Australian
Open, French Open, Wimbledon Championships and US Open).

(Nikolaj is a certified cutie!)




One of the best tennis players of their time, John McEnroe and Chris
Evert as themselves and were the tournament's commentators.




Kirsten Dunst as Lizzie Bradbury at the foul line.
