Reviews
|
Portland Oregonian -
More of a bunt than a home run.
|
|
Los Angeles Times -
Those who have even a small soft spot for baseball's soothing rhythms will be hard-pressed to resist it.
|
|
Christian Science Monitor -
This sentimental drama is wildly uneven as it switches between ballpark scenes, which are very involving, and romantic episodes, which are badly overplayed.
|
|
L.A. Weekly -
The film's larger, surprisingly mature emotional rhythms are strong enough to pull it through.
|
|
Entertainment Weekly -
Costner's determination to avoid change keeps this baseball movie at a low line drive when it might have knocked one into the bleachers.
