Summer Catch (2001) 6/10

Starring : Freddie Prinze Jr, Jessica Biel, Fred Ward, Matthew Lillard, Brian Dennehy, Jason Gedrick, Brittany Murphy, Bruce Davidson
Director : Michael Tollin
Running Time : 102 mins

Whilst taking part in a baseball competition to further his ambition to become a professional player, Ryan Dunne (Prinze) falls for rich girl Tenley Parrish (Biel) who is spending the summer in his home town of Cape Cod, but things become complicated when her father shows his disapproval of their relationship, which has an adverse affect on his game.

This is a pretty average teen movie, with a very weak performance from Prinze. Biel manages to play the nervous and indecisive girl quite well, but her good looks kind of make it difficult for her to be believable in the role. This isn’t worth making an effort to see, so I’d recommend leaving it until it’s on television again.
