Scouting the Creeps in TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE

The grand gesture of Justin Timberlake playing baseball trivia as Amy Adams "brother."

"What do you say now, jackass? That's known as... trouble with the curve."

While one might not call this throwaway romcom late in Clint Eastwood's career as the ultimate title drop movie... it still manages to annoy one co-host enough to negate any charms Justin Timberlake brings to the table in his pursuit of Amy Adams. Those charms include:

  • Roleplaying as her brother who makes out with her in a bar fight.
  • Denied a kiss so he gets naked.
  • Feels betrayed, throws a tantrum and then plays baseball trivia.

Classic cinema. Enjoy!
