Trouble with the Curve (2012)

A likable enough flick, The Trouble with the Curve is a father/daughter bonding movie by way of way of sports film, he (Clint Eastwood) is an aging pro-baseball scout, she (Amy Adams) is a young lawyer on the verge of being made partner. The two travel around the Carolinas together and eventually work through their old emotional baggage. Justin Timberlake plays Ms. Adams love interest, he was born in 1981 and she in 1974, having the woman be the older partner in a cinematic relationship is rare enough that it might be the most unusual thing in this conventional, but likable film. **1/2
