OK...you're a producer or director and somebody give you a script - and it has no story...
What do you do? You try to prolong the story with whatever you can...throw in a stripper in a totally boring scene.
Try to make a love story where there is none.
Try some really bad sex jokes and have them turn out wrong.
Yeah - you can do a whole bunch of stuff and it still won't turn out right.
With a lame sport like tennis, it's not really something that can excite people...and with a movie based on a sport that nobody really cares about and a character based on a person that nobody really cares about - well you have a movie that nobody really cares about.
That's all I can write and still be honest.
It's just plain boring and drags on too long...
