      Old-fashioned, tacky, but touching.

      First of all, I think comparing this film with a penalty kick is what you are teasing me. The focus of the film is different. You compare it to others. It is better to study the similarities between red pepper and Inception. I can’t just put it together just because I talked about baseball. I also watched Mr. Rookie. Did I put it together?

      The plot is old-fashioned, very old-fashioned, and you can know what to say in the next one by seeing this paragraph, so that I can accurately...

      "The "Millions of Golden Arms" of New Business Models"

      "The "Millions of Golden Arms" of the New Business Model"

      does not watch a few Indian or Indian films every year. Is it still called watching movies?
      The film-Million Dollar Arm, is a commercial exploration film. Ha ha ha!

      India contributes people and power (really hard work);
      China contributes money and power (purchasing power); the
      United States contributes ideas and brains.

      This business model will tap rural resources and apply them to the...

      South-style nostalgia

      There are some sports movies that are not particularly inspirational, so they may be considered alternative movies. In addition to this one, there are also similar "Baseball Boys". But this is most of the real world of sports. Most people are not the one who wins. What we are looking for is actually just a little bit of warmth in life. Kevin Costner is the recent big love, Susan Sarandon still has the charm. The film uses an "alternative" way to convey baseball culture that I don't know much...

      Hollywood-style warmth and inspiration, no lack of tears

      I accidentally hit the million gold arm that hasn't been released yet. Typical Hollywood warmth and inspirational film-----even base on true story. Generally speaking, the storytelling is very complete. The drama conflicts are escalated and resolved again and again, and the final interpretation is not bad. It combines warmth, inspiration, and humor in several basic cinematic film elements. Although I can see the traces of the sensationalism, it did not miss me crying into tears in the theater....

      Nice baseball movie

      The movie itself is three-and-a-half stars, plus half-star for baseball themes. The image of JB Sir is quite plump. The plot is basically flat and straightforward, which may be due to the adaptation of real people.

      From this, we can get a glimpse of the role of scouts and agents in the American professional sports system. The old man scouts mine not many scenes, but it is very brilliant.

      Additional background material: Tampa is one of the two major spring training bases of Major...

      2015.07.11 Sports-themed movies adapted from real events are rarely unsightly. The warmth and magic of life itself are not inferior to the brilliant pens of top screenwriters. I really like this kind of movie where there is no villain in the whole movie, and every character is so cute! PS: Jon Hamm is so handsome that he has no friends.

    U.S. media

    When the film focuses on cultural conflicts, the audience's laughter naturally flows out; but when the film too follows the script of a sports film, the film becomes dull and lengthy. ( Review of "USA Today" ) The   film has all the excellent elements of a genre. Although the dramatic elements are not strong, the director's style is solid, calm, and calm. The performance of each actor is natural and true, and the role relationship has...

    Sports inspirational movie, composed of three short stories, is very warm, and the ending is small moving. However, the story still has the same old themes of the same type, lack of preparation, a little thin you, and a bit of a drag in the rhythm. The Indian music and exotic atmosphere in the film are great highlights. ( 1905 Film Online Review
    As an inspirational sports biopic, you can get seven points. But its most "exciting" is...
