    A good old Baseball Movie 3 Star Review
    2008-04-02 - A fun and good way to start the ball season. It is good movie for kids and has a wonderful suprise ending. And, of course, its a great story that includes baseball!

    Lost Baseball player finds way 4 Star Review
    2007-11-04 - Tom Selleck is a baseball player that appears to be at the end of his career when he is traded to a Japanese Team and faced with many challenges to over come is stalling career, womenizing ways, and his basic arrogance. He faces all of his issues and problems and becomes the hero at the end. Couple of surprises here and there, overall a good movie to see, may not be a good one for the library though.

    A Favourite 4 Star Review
    2007-06-02 - Tom Selleck plays a spoiled, womanizing, washed-up Major League ball player who gets traded to a team in Japan. After a few temper tantrums and childish pranks he realizes that he needs to do more than coast along if his career in baseball is going to survive.

    With the help of the coach (Ken Takakura), the coach's lovely daughter and his assigned interpreter he learns to respect the traditions of Japan and its people. He also learns that what you put in is what you get back. In learning he is able to teach the coach and his fellow players to enjoy the "game" of baseball.

    This is ONE of my favourite baseball movies. It's witty and light entertainment that offers a glimpse into Japanese culture and the business of baseball. Selleck is believable as a baseball giant. Reviewed by M. E. Wood.

    funny look at life for an american in Japan 4 Star Review
    2007-05-12 - Mr. Baseball

    Engaging film that tells it like it is about life in Japan for a visiting geijin (foreigner). Whether its navigating a bathroom for the first time to enjoying the wonders of Kobe beef or looking at the abject horror in the faces of your girlfriends parents the first time you meet them. Mr. Baseball hits a homerun. Its also an entertaining movie, arrogant (yet ever ingratiating) Selleck plays an over the hill baseball player shipped off to Japan by his agent. With the help of his new manager and the new girlfriend he meets, he learns how to grow up and fit in, but it isn't an easy learning experience.

    While not academy material, this movie holds its own and your attention through out and is full of laughs as well as insight, certainly more then I expected when I picked this one up.

    No extras on the DVD other then subtitles.

    Enjoy, have a laugh and if you ever lived in Japan, enjoy the memories of that unique experience as they come flooding back.
