A nice , brave attempt with wonderful direction and hard-hitting performances. A must watch for every Indian

Rating: 8/10 (22 September 2014)

Million Dollar Arm was one of the most under-rated film which will inspire and motivate you with head-strong story of two boys who succeeded and achieved within short span of time.
Million Dollar Arm tells story of a sports agent who travels to India to look for the best arm-pitcher for a major league baseball team.
Hats off to Craig Gillespie for choosing a difficult subject and bring out the true story of 2 Indian boys coming from a remote village. He succeeds in telling the story of brave kids who, despite all odds,dares to dream and achieves the goal. The screenplay is outstanding keeping the audience alive coupled with beautiful background score and strong performances. Music by A.R.Rehman gels well with mood of the film supported with crisp editing. May I please request the Hollywood makers not to show India in bad light. There are more things in India than just showing dirt, hunger and cows. You have to explore the better side of India. Anyways , the film boast of wonderful performances by Jon Hamm, Madhur Mittal, Suraj Sharma and Darshan Jariwala. Special mention for Alan Arkin for giving a fabulous performance in a short role. All of them suited the characters till T.
A nice , brave attempt with wonderful direction and hard-hitting performances. Very good 4/5
