Rating: 7/10 (13 April 2020)

I watched The Natural years ago and liked it. I had not watched it for years. I watched it again a few days ago. was surprised to learn that it came out in 1984. Its one my second favorite baseball movie.
The first on my list of favorite baseball movies is major league.
I its not a realistic baseball movie. A great young pitching prospect gets shot with a silver bullet Then years later he makes it to the majors as a home run hitting power hitter. He uses a bad he made when he was young. The bat is mad from a tree that got hit by lightning. It can only be a story for a movie.
But, it was very entertaining from open to closing credits.
My favorite scene from the Natural is is the scene at the end of the movie where Roy Hobbs bat breaks so he had to get another bat. And with that new bat Roy hits a home run that hits the lights and they explode.
