Let's Play Name the Gerard Butler Movie (That Isn't '300') (2012/12/08)- Tickets to Movies in Theaters, Broadway Shows, London Theatre & More

Gerard Butler‘s latest romantic comedy Playing For Keeps opens in theaters this weekend and if you endured the trailer, you quickly realized two things: 1. He’s definitely getting back with Jessica Biel by the end of this thing and 2. I’ve seen this Gerard Butler movie before, haven’t I?

Well, let’s see, in Playing For Keeps, the 43-year-old actor plays an athletic (Chasing Mavericks), sometimes charming but more often boorish, indistinguishable foreigner who inexplicably has a way with the ladies (The Phantom of the Opera) in a movie universally panned by critics. Sound familiar? See if you can distinguish which Gerard Butler movie is which and if you can…we’re so sorry.
