PLAYING FOR KEEPS is a US comedy romance in which a former Celtic football star, who finished his playing career in America, dreams of becoming a television sports pundit but in the meantime has to settle for coaching a children's soccer team.

Sex: Occasional moderate sex references include a woman telling a man she is imagining him "on top" of her, as well as references to sleeping together.
Language: There is moderate bad language ('wankers'), as well as milder terms including 'balls', 'bitched', 'bloody', 'bollocks', 'crap', 'God', 'screwed', 'shit' and 'son of a 'bitch'. There is a self-directed use of the term 'spastic' by a woman but the film as a whole doesn't endorse discriminatory language or behaviour.
Violence: A brief gory image appears on a television screen showing a horror film, in which we see a reptilian monster plunging a claw into a man's chest with resulting sight of blood but no discernible injury detail.
