Review: (#1) I suppose if you are interested in baseball, this film will some measure of pull; however, the trailer’s stereotypical approach is off-putting and distracting at times.

(#2) It’s strange that a film starring Josh Duhamel would actually look decent, but this one does. There are solid doses of humor mixed in with a premise that hasn’t been told too often recently, making it seem fresher.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
