Will Ferrell's trademark off-the-wall lunacy kicks in for a comedy sure to score big with the whole family! Phil Weston (Ferrell) is a mild-mannered suburban dad - who's suddenly transformed into a caffeine-fueled sports maniac when he becomes the coach of his son's unruly soccer team. But when the championship pits Phil's underdog team against the squad coached by his own domineering dad (Oscar® winner Robert Duvall), it's game on for the most uproarious mismatch of the season! Suit up for fun, Ferrell-style, with the comedy Ebert & Roeper give "Two Thumbs Up!"

Richard Propes

As disjointed as the whole thing is, it's often funny and, on a certain level, endearing.

There is a bit of heart in Kicking and Screaming, with Ferrell and Duvall both giving nice performances.

Mattie Lucas

Just too awkward and clunky to be enjoyable.

You may have to be dragged kicking and screaming to see this silly kiddie footie flick.

It's all kept light and funny, but underlying the broad sight gags is a movie that actually has something to say about competition, fathers and sons, machismo and caffeine.
