The players reject him at first but come togther when they The young coach makes them remember what the game really means to them and the fans. Appearances by Ken Griffey Jr. and many other professional players. A short but brillaint apperance by Jason Robards.

Great film for all ages. Very good acting, even from kids which is hard to find. Very good plot and characters. It was very good that they were on actual major league sites and used actual players in many scenes. Most baseball movies have a bunch of baseball fan want-to-bez, but this film did not. At times it was very realistic. It truly shows how adults have messed us the game. The film was able to use great statistics and actual baseball information to assist audience members that are not familiar with the game. Two issues stopped me from rating it with 5 stars. 1: the sound was not very good. At times I could not understand the main character and the music was much louder than the rest of the film. I had to keep adjusting the volume. 2: It did show provocative images that in my opinion were not appropriate for kids. They could have shown less and people would have gotten the idea. Now I would not be allowed to show this to my students in elementary school. Not good! But over-all it is an excellent family film and worth the purchase price.

We have watched this movie so much that I had to buy a replacement. It is funny and entertaining for the whole family. I recommend this movie.

This movie is so cute! It's perfect for my 6-year-old baseball fanatic. The only small part in the movie that's even slightly questionable is the mention of the main character, just a boy, rents Nurses in Jersey (adult movie) multiple times while staying over night in a hotel with the team. I'm pretty positive it went right over my son's head (except that he'll be watching the movie multiple times, and he's bright enough to put it together eventually--not a fan of that reference/influence). Again, very minor--this is really a terrific movie!

Bought this to replace a DVD that I had for years. Picture quality seems a little better. Still a good movie.

I loved this movie when I was a kid. I’m 34 years old now and still enjoy watching it. Your kids will certainly enjoy it!

Love this movie and all movies with kids playing sports so funny.

Not that my opinion matters so much. My athletic 8 year old son enjoys it very much. I think it's some kind of rite of passage for boys, because a lot of the men I know remember this movie fondly. Sandlot 5 stars, this movie 4 stars. There are some pretty tedious parts, and I always get bored quick of the downward-spiral part of movies before the protagonist realizes the true meaning of Christmas or baseball or what have you- it goes on too long in this movie for me.
