'Coach' trailer: Hugh Dancy is Hugh Grant, with believable athletic ability

Categories: Movie Trailers, Movies

Watching the trailer for Coach, it’s easy to think it’s just another film about a guy who finds his worth (and a woman) coaching a kids’ team (in this case, soccer). But it’s not. It has Hugh Dancy! Also, Community‘s Gillian Jacobs, as the soon-to-be ex girlfriend who insists he do something with his life, and Last Chance Harvey‘s Liane Balaban, as the doctor who actually makes him want to be a better man.

Are you a sucker for these films, too? Or does the man-child-coming-of-age romantic sports dramedy genre need to be retired?

    Hugh Dancy is so cute. How he ended up with someone as ugly as Claire Danes beats me.

      i agree. plus danes has such an ugly personal/romantic history. he couldv’e done much better than her.

  • Val

    This seems dreadful.

  • Sara

    Maybe he has good eyes, and isn’t as shallow as you. She looks pretty good here and is quite talented. http://www.imdb.com/media/rm807700992/nm0000132

  • kerry

    Hugh Dancy is ridiculously cute – and definitely the only reason to see this movie.

  • el

    agree with the Hugh Dancy line of things, definently the only reason to see the show.

  • hardwareog

    I hope Dauber is in this.

    Gillan Jacobs is the weak link on “Community”, so I doubt she’ll be any good in this film.

    • Stephanie

      Yes! I love Hugh Dancy but I’m really disliking Jacobs on Community-I’m afraid she’ll ruin this movie for me.

  • Jacie

    Apparently he isn’t shallow. i’d go see this but pretty much just because of him… not that socceer movies aren’t good or anything but come on… its HUGH DANCY!

  • julia

    ill go see the movie coz im sure Hugh will deliver another good performance as he did in shopaholic and adam,,and pls!! “cute” is an understatement,HUGH DANCY is what the word-”handsome” really means.

  • julia

    but i agree,he’s too handsome for claire danes!

  • cdelong

    Clare Danes is gorgeous…her skin and eyes and mannerisms. She is so NOT cookie cutter! She relies on her talent, beauty and brains…not bimbo antics.
