Well made sports romance-drama with Zachary Levi taking advantage of his Shazam physicality to be a believable football player (and he bares enough of a resemblance to the real Kurt Warner as well). But the chemistry between him and Anna Paquin was wonderful. Just an all around nice movie that isn't ... overly sappy. **4.0/5**
