Here is the plot summary of Kicking & Screaming: Phil Weston (Will Ferrell) has always been a lovable underachiever. As a college student, he tried out for various sports but consistently failed to impress. Now, as a father to his 10-year-old son Sam (Lucas Babin), Phil is determined not to pass on his lack of athletic prowess to the next generation. However, it seems like Sam is destined to follow in his dad's footsteps. As the two start playing soccer together, Phil's frustrations boil over when he realizes that Sam is inheriting his own ineptitude. In a desperate attempt to break the cycle, Phil decides to coach Sam's youth soccer team, despite having no experience or talent himself. Phil's hyper-competitive and eccentric father Buck (Robert Duvall) becomes the team's assistant coach, bringing his own brand of rough-and-tumble coaching style to the table. As the season progresses, Phil's antics on the field become increasingly absurd, much to the dismay of his teammates and opponents alike. Despite the chaos he creates, Phil finds himself getting more invested in the game than ever before. He begins to realize that winning isn't everything and that the journey with Sam is far more important. As the team navigates through a series of hilarious mishaps, Phil learns valuable lessons about sportsmanship, teamwork, and the importance of being true to oneself. Through his zany coaching methods and cringe-worthy moments on the field, Phil ultimately finds a way to connect with his son and forge a deeper bond with him. In the end, Kicking & Screaming is a heartwarming comedy that celebrates the beauty of imperfection and the joy of family bonding over shared experiences.
