4.0 out of 5 stars True to life satire, December 25, 2006

This review is from: Church Ball (DVD)

I had a chance to watch this movie with a mixed group of people in Salt Lake City. By mixed, I mean that some of us were Latter Day Saints and some were Methodists. We have all played softball in both the Utah Protestant leagues as well as the LDS leagues. My brother, a protestant, played on an LDS league basketball team in the late 1960s. It was rough house basketball. My brother got his nose broken in an LDS ward basketball game.

This movie is not "true to life" but it is true satire of the real situation when some people play for a church league.

I am a Methodist who was born, raised and still live in Utah. My LDS friends and I have played on the Methodist, mixed men and women co ed team and on the all male LDS team. All of us have played on the same teams in both leagues. We are not the best athletes. We are probably the worst sports. The best sports on these teams are the men and women who have actually played high school and or college sports.

The situations and attituedes in this movie are real. There is a little flare for the dramatic by adding Hot Rod Huntley and Mark Eaton to announce the final game, but the situations and the attitudes displayed in the movie are true to reality in both the Protestant and LDS leagues in Utah.

3.0 out of 5 stars No that bad, March 25, 2008

I did not know what to expect from a "Mormon" movie. This was recommended. Maybe closer to Utah these are funnier, but I did enjoy it and I don't feel that it was a wast of my time. As a LDS person so far away from Utah it seems like a nother planet, the humor sometimes takes a minute or two for me to figure out.

I bought this DVD mainly because of the late Gary Coleman and the time he met his wife. I tried seeing it from the beginning but something may be wrong with the disc. I am not sure but I would keep trying to play it.
