Capitalizing every word while not differentiating the movie title makes your subject confusing.

Looks interesting. Disney has done some of the GOAT sports movies.

Just saw it is based on real events.

Looked into it. But won't spoil it.

it's a true story with a few creative license segments. The real guys came by set for a bit of shooting as did the real JB

Looks like something I would definitely see.

Congrats on the film!

Just saw it with the Wife, both of us enjoyed it (which seldom happens).

Slumdog Millionaire meets Money Ball. The pics of the real guys during the credits are worth hanging out a few extra minutes.

Congrats JW (I guess, I'm not quite sure what role the Art Director plays)

Saw this movie with my kids this weekend. It is a decent movie but is aimed more towards adults than kids. My kids were bored out of their mind as was I at times. This was a weak entry by Disney and could have been so much better if they wouldn't have focused the story so much on the agent. By the end of the movie, I wanted him to fail and lose his job/business. This movie had so much potential.

So it IS a new version of The Scout.

I have never seen The Scout so I can't compare. It was a poor man's version of Jerry Maguire were you couldn't relate to the JB (agent) by the end of the movie. I would have rather watched an actual footage documentary about the "Million Dollar Arm" reality show than what Disney put on film. Too much focus on JB and not enough on the three blokes from India (2 reality show winners and their translator). If it wasn't for those 3 characters and that Lake Bell is easy on the eyes, the movie would have sucked donkey balls.
