TCP - Summer Fun "Summer Catch"

Summer Fun is this week edition for Tuesday Couch Potatoes. I am would like to feature the movie Summer Catch with stars Freddie prinze and Jessica Biel. This is one of the best teen movies I watched in 2001. I am a fan of freddie prinze i think he is a good actor and he played quiet a lot of wholesome teen movies back then. Most of the teen movies these days are not as good as before. There are few tha are great and box office movies but there are also a lot of not really good movies. Anyhow, watch this movie and enjoy.

Every year the hottest college ball players in the country descend upon Cape Cod to pursue their big-league dreams during the day and blow off steam in town at night. The first local boy in years to earn a slot in the Cape's elite Baseball League, Ryanís finally got his shot...but the temptation to score off the field is almost as intense as the pressure to perform on the diamond.

His eyes on the prize, Ryan tries to stay focused despite distractions like the local girls, who are all too ready to help the players cut loose. Among them are Dede (BRITTANY MURPHY), who impresses the team with her ability to pour a beer without using her hands, and the town's very own "Mrs. Robinson," who is infamous for her annual "initiation" of new recruits like naïve young second-baseman Mickey "Domo" Dominguez (WILMER VALDERRAMA).

As the friction builds between his loyal townie friends and his cocky teammates, college superstars jockeying for the attention of pro scouts Ryan's rivalry with his hotshot teammate Eric Van Leemer (COREY PEARSON) nears the boiling point. His main ally is the team's fun-loving catcher, Billy Brubaker (MATTHEW LILLARD), who's got Ryan's back both on the field and on the town.

The last thing Ryan's looking for is a fling with sexy, sophisticated Vassar grad Tenley Parrish (JESSICA BIEL). Will he rise to the challenge or strike out? Either way, it's gonna be one hot summer. -- © 2001 Warner Bros.
