Review of The Rookie (2002) by Peter M — 04 Feb 2011
In anticipation off pitchers and catcher reporting to Spring Training, I thought I would watch a baseball movie. I've owned this movie for a while but never got around to watch it. To be honest I wasn't in a hurry to watch this one.
After all it is a sports movie which are usually embellished quite a bit as well as being a Disney production which usually comes with a side "cheese" if you know what I mean. But it wasn't nearly a mellow dramatic as I expected.
There were a few inaccuracies but nothing a casual baseball fan would notice. It doesn't stand up to other classic baseball movies like The Natural or Bull Durham but like the main character, has made to the "Big Show".
