Plot: Roy McAvoy (Kevin Costner) is a talented golf pro, who owns his own driving range. That sounds impressive, but the reality is quite different. While it's true that Roy is indeed a talented golfer and does own a driving range, it is in a tiny, unheard of Texas backwater. With almost no customers, he is likely to go broke. His golfing talents remain untapped and his life is rapidly going nowhere. To pass the time, he drinks a lot of beer with his buddies, or swings at a bucket of balls. Sometimes, he even plays real golf, and his friend and assistant Romeo (Cheech Marin) caddies for him. That's all there is for Roy, until he is wakened from his deathlike reverie by a visit from a newcomer in town, psychologist Molly Griswold (Renee Russo). Teaching her how to swing a club reminds him of feelings he had nearly forgotten. Discovering that she is the girlfriend of his old golfing rival, David Simms (Don Johnson), goads him yet further, and he returns to the PGA golf tour to compete in the U.S. Open. Maybe he'll get Molly for himself, maybe not, but in the meantime he has some things to prove to himself. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide

The subtitle of this movie says it all. Roy is adept and relaxed at golf, but love he's the opposite. The turnaround in both occur (well somewhat the love more than golf, for the risk taker in him persists) with a local psychologist taking lessons in golf, while she gives him lessons in love and mental skills.

The acting by lead characters is good, esp. Cheech. There is too much f** words and other language in this for this reviewer, and I know before it's said it's only my opinion and it is.

The soundtrack is superb, which I bought and play often since watching this on big screen first. Interesting plot and well done cinematography.

Not my favorite golf flick, but not in bottom third either. Somewhere in middle.

What can I say, Keven Costner a likeable guy who is a failure falls for some Shrink and gives up his bad habits. Golf story but still a funny love story.

Good but a little slow

The product was exactly like what I ordered. My only small complaint is that it took a long time for me to get (over 2 weeks, close to 3).
