I was really impressed with this movie. Not being a HUGE lover of baseball, I was unsure how I would feel about it. This movie had me enthralled from the first few moments.
Coming from a family who has members that have struggled with addiction, I could relate to the main character, which really made me love this movie most of all. Not really intended for young children to watch, as they would not truly grasp the story. Keep some tissue handy, as this movie proves to be an inspiring view with a roller coaster of emotions (all good ones).
