5.0 out of 5 stars A Day at the Ballpark, May 24, 2008

By

This review is from: Bleacher Bums (DVD)

Bleacher Bums is a movie version of the famous Second City stage play which stars Wayne Knight(Seinfeld, Third Rock from the Sun), Brad Garrett(Everybody Loves Raymond, Til' Death) and Hal Sparks(Queer as Folk). The film is about a group of loyal baseball fans who take bets on the entire game, cheer and boo for the home team and gets on each others' cases. Now, due to legal and trademark issues, the film cannot use the Chicago Cubs name or logo, Wrigley Field, or Major League Baseball, and also, the film was not shot on location in Chicago, but Toronto, Ontario, Canada. But anyway, Bleacher Bums will make you laugh, cry, and believe in the spirit of baseball.

This movie is great combination of adult humor, love story and object lesson. You'll laugh till you cry at some scenes and may be tempted to cry at others. If you like relational movies, you have GOT to see Bleacher Bums.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Film - more to think about than "baseball", January 29, 2004

Ignore the heckler in the stands below; this is a great film not just about baseball, or gambling, but about people and how they "win or lose." In this film, no one loses and the entire cast hits homeruns. I loved it.

Anyone know who did the great blues music featured in the film? I would love to have a CD of this as well!
