Running the Bases

I was honestly impressed with and surprised by this movie! I knew going in that as a Christian movie, there might be aspect technically that weren't comparable to the recent blockbusters of the secular box office but the cinematography was beautiful and I enjoyed seeing the variety of shots and seamlessly editing. I loved the incorporation of the soundtrack and how it played on the audience's heartstrings. The story itself was so heart-wrenching. Bring you tissues because there were so twists even I didn't see coming that left me with my jaw on the floor. I was so engaged in this film and had such a fun time watching it. Bring your whole family to this clean film that proclaims the good news of the Hope we have in Jesus Christ. It's witty, wholehearted and winsome! To everyone involved in this project...Great Job of standing up for your faith even when the world didn't approve! I plan to go see it again and take my family!

Had no idea what to expect. Wanted to watch a Baseball Movie. Teaching Good Morals to young people. Not afraid of the Gospel. About Family. That God is with you, even through the Best of Times, and the Darkest Times.

The everlasting thread of God's Spirit, through lives, events, dreams, and disappointments. You never knew where the plot would take the viewer.

Very Uplifting.

Also about Unity in Christ.

Good for most ages.

This movie honestly is one of the best films I have seen this year! It has something for everyone and keeps your attention from beginning to end. The story was excellent and the characters were realistic with heart that draws you in. Acting was A+ and casting was perfect across the board. One way I know a movie is exceptional is if it can make me cry... I cried! This movie was not only entertaining but it masterfully wove real life principles of faith, courage, forgiveness, redemption, and hope throughout. It also has some twists, turns, and surprises too. This film shines and is a must see for all!!

This is one of the small percentage of films that passes muster in 2022. It has been rather depressing to pan so many films (over 85%) released during this year. Fortunately, this film is not one of those. First of all, I must admit I am a sucker for baseball movies, but not all of them. The dreadful "Babe Ruth Story" starring William Bendix was a prime example of an extremely corny film. Field of Dreams=good corny, The Babe Ruth Story=bad corny. This film, despite its religious content, succeeds in capturing the audience. The plot is interesting and has real-life implications. It is not easy to make a living in baseball if you are not a talented player in the major leagues. But some can succeed in being happy in life and having a nice career in it as well. Good viewing.

My baseball-loving 12-year-old son and I drove 45 minutes to the next state over to watch this movie, and I'm so glad we did! It was absolutely incredible. I don't think there was any foul language at all. There were a couple of suspenseful scenes, but they were very tastefully handled, as they were crucial to the storyline. I appreciated everything about this movie. The characters were well-thought out, and the storyline kept you interested all throughout. I can only hope and pray there are more movies like this one being produced in the future, because we need them now more than ever. Great movie!
