	'Mr. 3000,' 'Wimbledon': Sporting Second Chances (washingtonpost.com)
		"Wimbledon" is directed by Richard Loncraine ("Richard III," "Brimstone and Treacle"), who uses all sorts of fizzy edits and whizzing digital effects to approximate what it must be like in center court at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.
		The visuals get a little vertiginous at times, but on the whole, "Wimbledon" gets the tennis right (Dunst and Bettany trained for four months with former champion Pat Cash, and their moves are surprisingly authentic, down to every serve-grunt).
		It's impossible to believe her as the ruthless player and voracious man-eater Lizzie is supposed to be; part of the attraction in "Wimbledon" should be the push-pull between the unapologetically ambitious American and the congenitally restrained English gentleman.
