Leatherheads
In the beginning, the rules were simple. There weren't any.
When veteran football player Dodge Connolly (George Clooney) recruits war hero Carter “The Bullet” Rutherford, to aid the failing fortunes of his team, he gets far more than he bargains for. With Carter’s arrival comes the smart and sassy newspaper journalist Lexie Littleton (Renée Zellweger), whom is tasked by her Editor to uncover the dirt on Carter and the truth behind his war hero status!
Critic Reviews:
- " As period rom-com go, Leatherheads is entertainment. " – Pauline Adamek
- " Leatherheads is like an oasis in the middle of a desert – a genuinely enjoyable romantic comedy. " – David Stratton
- " Self-assured even when it's self-aware, this is a fizzy concoction with three fingers of Billy Wilder and one of Frank Capra. It's shaken with the Coens and topped off with a splash of Ron Shelton and a cinematographical cream-soda sheen. " – Nick Rogers
