Bagger Vance it ain't

"A Gentleman's Game" is all about a teen boy with a natural golf swing who caddies for a country club and learns there's more to life than golf (duh). This lame little coming-of-age flick is packed with lessons in life such as don't bury your guns in sand traps or it's okay not to swim with half naked babes or don't believe old drunk guys. Although this film's heart is in the right place, I'm not sure its director was. A jumbled, messy indie which never quite coagulates, "A Gentleman's Game" has so much golf stuff in it that it would probably be more enjoyable for those who know something about the game. Personally, I thought the film was much like the game; slow moving and boring. (C)
