The Perfect Catch (2005) 7/10

Starring : Drew Barrymore, Jimmy Fallon
Director : Bobby & Peter Farrelly
Running Time : 104 mins

When career focused Lindsey Meeks (Barrymore) meets laid back Ben Wrightman (Fallon), they start off a relationship that at first seems perfect. But when baseball season begins, Lindsey finds herself competeing with the Boston Red Sox for Ben’s affections.

This remake of Fever Pitch doesn’t have any of the originality or sparkle of other Farrelly Brothers movies – even their remake of The HeartbreakKid was stamped with the obvious Farrelly Brothers feel that has been made so popular by movies such as There’s Something About Mary and Shallow Hal. Still, this is an entertaining movie that manages to be entertaining, even without the gross-out moments so often associated with these directors.
