The Game Plan Movie Trailer

I must admit, I'm a fan of The Rock. I think he could be the next big action star, if he got the right roles. And the fact that his new film, Disney's The Game Plan was shot in my hometown (and at the New England Patriots' Gillette Stadium), with a few of my close friends on screen, it should be hard for me to not like this film. I mean, for months I've actually been excited to see it. Disney has made a couple good sports films, and a bunch of bad ones. Unfortunately, The Game Plan looks like it could be one of the aforementioned clunkers. The Rock has a huge sense of comic timing, and that if not anything else, is very evident in this trailer.  Check out the new trailer after the jump and decide for yourself. Could this be to The Rock what Mr. Nanny was to Hulk Hogan?

The movie follows an NFL quarterback living the bachelor lifestyle who discovers that he has a 7-year-old daughter from a previous relationship. The film also stars Kyra Sedgwick. Yes, this is the movie where The Rock sustained a ruptured Achilles tendon injury which forced the studio to postpone production for a few months. Although no official release date has been announced, we expect this one to hit theaters sometime during the 2007 football season.
