Review of Bull Durham (1988) by Daniel V — 21 Feb 2014
One of the best baseball movie sees Kevin Costner team up with frequent collaborator director Ron Shelton. Costner plays an aging minor leaguer whose dreams of making the big leagues, 'The Show', are all but dead despite being on a HR record chase.
A minor league record, but still a significant achievement. Costner's Crash mentors as well as butts heads with Tim Robbins talented metal t-shirt wearing brash young pitcher. Susan Sarandon is a sexpot with an exceptional knowledge of the game.
Baseball and love. Robbins and Sarandon may have married off screen after meeting here and they are a good onscreen couple but the chemistry between Costner and Sarandon sizzles so hot that when the two finally do kiss, it's nearly explosive.
