Wonderful sentimental cinema

Rating: 9/10 (17 April 2001)

Maybe I am missing something having read the reviews and seen the overall score for this film, before I decided to add my comments, but I thought the film was excellent. I am not a golfer, nor particular about this group of actors or Robert Redford as a director. I loved this film. I think there is a placed, much missed today, for a film that gives you a chance to see beauty in human endeavor. A film that shows connectivity with others in spirit.
There is definitaly a place for feel good films that isn't necessarily reality based. The only think lacking to me was more individual character development. The acting was superb and I loved the fact that is was more understated , it made the film less melodramatic.
Do you what a great story, feel good, love cinematography, and shed a couple of feel good tears, then watch this film. 9 out of 10
