Matt Roush says...
The worlds of tennis and pickleball collide in a genial comedy starring Jake Johnson (New Girl) as Dusty “The Hammer” Boyd, a long-ago tennis prodigy now coaching kids at his unimpressed dad’s (Ed Harris) snooty country club, which resists opening more courts to the scourge of pickleball, seen as “the novel coronavirus of sports.” After Dusty reinjures the wrist that sidelined him years ago, his doctor (Ben Stiller in a cameo) suggests he take up, you guessed it, pickleball. As luck would have it, recently divorced and utterly charming Candace (Mary Steenburgen) needs a partner, and thus begins a mostly platonic friendship that culminates in an unlikely tournament involving Dusty and his nemesis, actual tennis star Andy Roddick (spoofing himself). The movie features one of the final performances of Lynne Marie Stewart (Miss Yvonne of Pee-wee’s Playhouse fame) as one of Dusty’s new pickleball pals.
