Think of 42 reasons to see it.

Rating: 7/10 (12 April 2013)

42 is more then a baseball movie. In fact a few more sparkling fielding plays would have been welcome. The movie has a great look to it. It captures the time period perfectly and the baseball parks, cars, and clothes always look perfect.
It's a story bigger then baseball, but baseball was a reflection of society at the time. Great performances all around. Chadwick Boseman gives a performance equal to Harrison Ford's . Hopefully they will be remembered later in the year.
The movie has an old fashioned Disney feel although it's from Warner Bros. Some may find it a tad long or a bit slow, kinda like baseball. It's a true story of a real hero. It's a well done movie that helps you understand why number 42 is the only number retired from all of baseball. See it.
