Great fun for the whole family that may be Baseball's version of the Mighty Ducks, with a really good story and excellent performances! *Spoilers*

Rating: 8/10 (2 February 2006)

This is great fun for the whole family that may be Baseball's version of the Might Ducks, with a really good story and excellent performances!. All the characters are cool, and extremely likable, and I thought all the kids on the team were quite likable, plus Keanu Reeves and Diane Lane are simply amazing in this!. It's very well made and written and it has a very emotional scene near the end involving the character G-Baby, plus The baseball action is actually not too bad. Diane Lane was really good as usual, but I wish they gave her more screen time and more to do, and I liked the ending, plus Keanu and Lane had pretty good chemistry together. Keanu had a pretty cool emotional speech, and I feel this film is underrated, plus it took me a while to warm up to Reeve's character at 1st because he was rather unlikable at the start, and an obsessive gambler. Keanu had a great relationship with the kids, and while I wish they would have shown us the final game, The ending they chose fit the film well, plus there were some pretty nifty defensive plays as well. This is great fun for the whole family, that may be Baseball's version of the Mighty Ducks, with a really good story and excellent performances, I highly recommend this one!. The Direction is great!. Brian Robbins does a great! job here with very good camera work and keeping the film at a fast pace. The Acting is excellent. Keanu Reeves is amazing as always and is amazing here, he is rather unlikable at 1st, but then grows on you, he also had pretty good chemistry with Lane, gives one of his best performances, as always had charisma, and you will begin to feel sorry for his gambling addiction after a while. (Reeves Rules!!!!!!!). Diane Lane is incredibly gorgeous, and is amazing with what she had to do, just her screen presence and beauty is enough alone for me, she had pretty good chemistry with Reeves, I just wish they gave her a bigger part and more to do (Lane Rules!!!!!!!). John Hawkes is amusing as the weasel I dug him. All the kids do surprisingly well and were very likable. Rest of the cast do fine. Overall I highly recommend this one!. ***1/2 out of 5
