Review of Bad News Bears (2005) by Yuuka T — 19 Jan 2009

Typical sporting triumph of misfits who couldn`t cut it in a cookie-cutter team of perfection and drive to do nothing but win.

Features a lazy, good-for-nothing coach who turns his life around and finds inspiration when he commands his hilarious team of nerds, foreigners and other castoffs, a smarmy, ambitious rival coach.. It has everything this sort of movie always has. It`s good in the sense that it sticks right to the formula.

Watch it for that little David Spade-ish blonde child who teaches the quiet bookish child to flip the bird. If you can`t stand that sort of thing, give this a miss. Me, I`m a Disney lover so I totally watched it to happily pass a sunny Sunday away.
