Tin Cup (1996)

I am fascinated by this film, no doubt about it. It displays a great affection from the title character for the game of golf. However, his character itself makes me want to punch him in the face with a baseball bat. The way the character acts...SPOILER ALERT!!! ... it just pisses me off beyond repair. He is a self-centered, worthless, girlfriend stealing asshole. With no respect for his friends nor anything for that matter except his blown up ego.SPOILER ALERT END!!! This movie however is a great film that is worth the watch, especially if you like golf!

Tin cup is one of the most boring movies I have ever seen. (Only comparable to Phenomenon of Travolta) Put aside the last ten minutes of US Open scenes, the whole movie is full of dull and boring dialogs and sub plots. I slept most of it. The movie force you to doze off involuntarily and makes you wake up here and there probably due to a high pithced Dolby sound when the actors slam a door or ingite a car to drive.The only redeeming value of the film is the beautiful look of Rene Russo despite her age. The lead hero is disgusting and not one to root for. Never seen Kevin so desperate and shabby like this. Good as a sleep pill, otherwise hell of a boring movie....Avoid.

The film is every amateur golfer dream.The best serious golf movie in my mind. As far as comedy golf films, Happy Gilmore and Caddyshack were fun, but Tin Cup played out the dream of contending at the US Open and letting it all hang out! I personally am not a huge Kevin Costner fan, however having said that a number of his films seem to be on my top ten list of favourite films. Untouchables, Tip Cup, Field of Dreams are all awesome films. I gotta say I do respect him. He chooses his films well.Personally I like the ending of the film. A man facing his demons and confronting them head on, even with all odds being against him. I loved this film.

Tin Cup is a highly entertaining Golf film, Kevin Costner and Rene Russo were absolutely dynamite together, I was really quite surprised by how good this film was!. The ending too me was Funny I mean sure He didn't win the US.Open but really nobody will be talking bout David Simm's(Johnson) victory they will be talking bout that huge shot Roy(Costner) made instead so to me it was quite satisfying. There are tons of great funny bits especially by Costner and Russo the two just clicked Majorily . The golf action was actually pretty exciting, and I'm not that big a golf fan really myself, but I really enjoyed it and Don Johnson is great as the prick you will hate him, plus Cheech Maran was actually quite funny as the Caddy. One of my favorite moments is when Rene bets Kevin can hit the golf ball into the river and scare off the pigeon and he does it I thought that was so cool!. Overall this is an excellent Golf film that's funny and highly entertaining and I say it's a must see for everyone!. ****1/2 out of 5The Acting is fantastic!. Kevin Costner is brilliant here he is funny,charming, and showed why he became such a big star I am personally a big fan of Costner's and think he is a great actor, he showed off his great charisma here, some viewers may get frustrated by his actions but I thought they were just great and his chemistry with Russo is amazing!. Rene Russo is awesome here as the love interest, she is obviously nice to look at, but she is also a great actress, she had some very funny scenes with Costner, and cracked me up quite a few times, I feel this is one of her best roles!. Don Johnson is great as David Simms he had some very good scenes with Costner, you will hate him as he plays an excellent cocky prick. Cheech Marin is hilarious as Costner's caddy he cracked me up all the time and actually had a good couple emotional scenes!.
