Not the home run the last three weeks had, but Game, Set, Love is a very solid romance, even if you’re not a tennis player/lover. Here is a quick recap and my full two cents 😉
Quick Recap
William is a spoiled rotten self-centered tennis star who is moving from the world of singles to doubles. Unsurprisingly he’s having trouble adjusting to having a partner. Ashley (William’s new partner) enlists her friend, Taylor’s, help in teaching William how to become a doubles partner.
My Two Cents
I haven’t seen a good sports romance since Love on the Sidelines, which was quite a while ago. Also, I didn’t really know any of the actors/actresses. So I wasn’t expecting much from this movie. But it was definitely worth watching tonight!
I loved the plot of Ashley wanting Taylor to help teach William how to be a better partner for doubles tennis, but through an injury, Taylor steps in to be William’s new partner. It was great seeing Taylor and William’s relationship evolve throughout the movie.
I especially liked all the time Taylor and William spent developing their relationship off the court. In order for people to work well together, they need to know each other in more ways than one. Just knowing each other on the court wasn’t enough to develop good communication and teamwork.
I loved the couples yoga and the card game where the high card winner is able to ask the other a question was a great way to learn more about each other! It would be fun to do something like the card game with coworkers! Even yoga would be entertaining. 🤣
I really wish they would have extended the ending a bit. I’d like to have seen what happens with Taylor and William in 6 months or a year. I know all the Hallmark movies end with the final kiss, but I really wanted an epilogue on this one! They both had so much personal growth, I wanted to see it continue. Especially with William and his family.
I hope you saw this movie tonight. Without the big star appeal I know a lot of people will be tempted to skip it, but I think it’s definitely worth a try. Especially if you’re more of an enemies to lover movie lover.
