Chicago Reader - Jonathan Rosenbaum
But as a neo-Dickensian Disney exercise in old-fashioned sentiment this has a certain charm and a sense of human decency that tended to win me over.

Time Out - Trevor Johnston
Fans should enjoy it; parents won't suffer too much.

At Angels‘ end, Al tells Roger, ”We’re always watching.” That’s more than audiences will say about this disappointing movie.

Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
The baseball action isn't very interesting because the angels (led by Christopher Lloyd) manipulate the outcomes. And the human interest stuff is canned and unconvincing.

TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
This remake of the 1951 family fantasy is strictly minor league, struggling mightily to balance heartwarming sentiment with sporty sight gags, yet never getting beyond second base.
