Why Is Her Best Move Rated G?
The positives far outweigh any content concerns in this fine movie about a young female soccer prodigy. A frustrated girl dumps food on a boy’s head in the school cafeteria after she overhears him saying nasty things about her. In another scene, she deliberately drops a note she was passing to a friend in chemistry class into a bottle of acid after the teacher requests she hand it over to him. Sexual content consists of a few kisses between a boy and girl, a girl adjusting her bra after getting dressed, and a short shot of girls exercising in sports bras (perhaps a homage to soccer player Brandi Chastain, who is seen in this film). A few terms of deity are heard as expletives.
