Editorial Review:
One of the better romantic comedies of the 1990s, this quirky love story stars Kevin Costner as washed-up golf pro Roy "Tin Cup" McAvoy, who has the singular misfortune of falling in love with the girlfriend (Rene Russo) of his arch rival (Don Johnson). Although he is inspired to re-ignite his golf career, challenge his opponent in the U.S. Open, and win the affection of the woman of his dreams, McAvoy has just one flaw: he's a show off when he should just focus on playing the game. Reunited with his Bull Durham writer-director Ron Shelton, Costner fits into his role like a favorite pair of shoes, and costar Cheech Marin scores a memorable scene-stealing comeback as McAvoy's best buddy, Romeo Posar. Mixing his love of sports with his flair for fresh, comedic dialogue, Shelton takes this enjoyable movie down unexpected detours (although some may find it a bit too long), and his characters are delightfully unpredictable. --Jeff Shannon
Tin Cup [Region 2] Reviews:
Golf Pro/Love Amateur 
2009-10-13 - The subtitle of this movie says it all. Roy is adept and relaxed at golf, but love he's the opposite. The turnaround in both occur (well somewhat the love more than golf, for the risk taker in him persists) with a local psychologist taking lessons in golf, while she gives him lessons in love and mental skills.
The acting by lead characters is good, esp. Cheech. There is too much f** words and other language in this for this reviewer, and I know before it's said it's only my opinion and it is.
The soundtrack is superb, which I bought and play often since watching this on big screen first. Interesting plot and well done cinematography.
Not my favorite golf flick, but not in bottom third either. Somewhere in middle.
Tin Cup 
2009-07-18 - I wasn't to thrilled with this movie I'm a Christian and all the cussing and sexual inuendo ruined it for me.
Great movie no thought needed plot telegraphed from start 
2009-06-22 - What can I say, Keven Costner a likeable guy who is a failure falls for some Shrink and gives up his bad habits. Golf story but still a funny love story.
Tin Cup 
2009-04-10 - I never got to watch the dvd. When I received the dvd it was scratched and I was unable to watch the movie.
Good but a little slow 
2009-01-06 - The product was exactly like what I ordered. My only small complaint is that it took a long time for me to get (over 2 weeks, close to 3).
