If you are not a baseball fan, this

If you are not a baseball fan, this will be a 1-2 to two star movie. If you like baseball, then this is a 3-5 star movie (depending on how you like the "love story/reflection of life" of this baseball movie) This movie does a good job of capturing the focus an athlete has to take on to be successful in their career...and demonstrating the emptiness/void many athletes have when the game has passed them. Great story lines, and most importantly excellent baseball shots/action in the movie with Kevin Costner doing one of the best pitching on screen performances ever (Yes, he actually pitched everything and threw his FB in the 80mph range). So if you like baseball and like a storyline mixed in about life, you will enjoy the chemistry Kelly Preston and Kevin Costner had in this movie as well as a nice performance from a you Jena Malone. JK Simmons as the coach and John C. Reilly also play their characters well although JCR's lack of athleticism does show a bit.

This films has its moments. The problem is the screenplay is terrible. Like the novel, it relies on flashbacks, which do not carry over well to film. It becomes a confusing mess.
