I loved all of the baseball aspects of the movie. Both Costner and Robbins were great. I disliked every moment Sarandon was on the screen. She just rubs me the wrong way. She has no chemistry with any of the other characters.

Baseball lifers will get -- and probably already have gotten -- a kick out of the many specific truisms littered throughout this light, yet refreshingly sardonic romp through minor league baseball. As a fan of the sport myself, I found it toBaseball lifers will get -- and probably already have gotten -- a kick out of the many specific truisms littered throughout this light, yet refreshingly sardonic romp through minor league baseball. As a fan of the sport myself, I found it to be an ultimately rewarding experience. As a fan of filmmaking, however, I found it to be slightly less so. The dialogue is supremely sharp and the authenticity behind the story is evident, but I just couldn't nail down these characters' motivations, attitudes, and traits. I suppose that helps in that I couldn't necessarily tell what was going to happen next. But I also ended feeling as though I didn't really ever know any of these people. And my emotional investment in them took a subsequent hit as well. An enjoyable movie overall, but a fleeting experience as well, I fear. Expand

This one missed the mark a little for me. Besides Crash and Nuke the rest of the team is pretty limp personality wise. Costner is good and is clearly actually good at baseball, but his big speech in the movie is I dunno, completely insane??
