for those who say the movie is so horrible....


You have to KNOW where they're coming from to understand it and enjoy the movie. Plus it's based on true events making it even better.You shouldn't pre-judge what you know anything about.

It's a good movie. Good message and very different from most sports movies. Only two things really hurt the credibility and the message of the movie: 1) Filming the Major League game at Tiger Stadium...I couldn't figure out if they were in Detroit or Chicago the whole movie and 2) Forcing the Keanu-Lane hints at romance. It was a stretch and made Keanu look like he was helping the kids partly for hot sex.

I really like this movie, I thought it had a good message and I love it.

Its not rasist like some ppl say it is.

I've never heard of so many people hating this movie until I saw this forum. It happens to be one of my favorites.
