Big League

Rating: Null/10 (4 March 2003)

I thought that "The Rookie" was a great movie, proof that Hollywood and Disney actually CAN make decent, yet interesting, movies without a bunch of foul language and implicit scenes.
Dennis Quaid was convincing as an aging, yet talented pitcher, who upon a bet with his baseball team (the Owls), tries to get into professional playing. He finds that his fast ball is around 98 mph, faster than when he was younger.
I think that this movie leaves one with the thought that age does not have to dictate the ending of young hopes and dreams. That is a good thing. I rate this movie with an "A".
