How Do You Know Reese's latest: speedily bombed

Plot When dropped from the USA softball team, Lisa (Witherspoon) finds her life suddenly without purpose. With an uncertain future, and feeling the sting of rejection, she becomes - against her will - caught in a love triangle with baseball-player beau Matty (Wilson) and George (Rudd), a reluctant corporate bigwig facing government indictment.
Verdict Not Brooks' best, but it has its moments. And if Rudd and Wilson at times struggle, Witherspoon is a joy.
