Walt Disney Video The Rookie
Good family movie, althought the plot and the acting are only decent. Nothing impressive, but i would recommend this to someone wanting to sit down and watch a good family movie.

I would really give this a 3.5 it was a good movie Dennis Quaid plays a chemistry teacher who coaches the highschool baseball team and when the team finds out he can through fast balls they make a deal with him that if they start winning their games that he would have to try out for a baseball team. Of course they start winnig more so he goes and tries out for a team. I like how this was based on a true story.

How often can you find amovie these days that's rated G? And you'll like it. Dennis Quaid comes across as a real baseball player. No kidding - the guy's got an arm. The high school stuff is a little melodramatic, but it's based on a true story and it's a way to get some real emotion into the movie. All in all, it's a feel good picture where a good man grows up to live his boyhood dream. It's worth seeing for everyone from ages 4 to 104.

A heart-warming sports flick, The Rookie greatly benefits from understated direction and the emotional honesty Dennis Quaid brings to the role of Jim Morris.

Walt Disney Video The Rookie
I have to admit, when we popped this in the DVD player, I was skeptical to say the least. Disney has come out with half a dozen of these movies featuring the same basic story--worst place team gets it all together and wins the championship (i.e. Little Giants, Mighty Ducks, Big Green, Ladybugs, etc.). I was expecting pretty much the same thing here, but I was very pleasantly surprised. It's based on the true story of Jim Morris, who becomes a major league ballplayer at the age of 35. He coaches a small town team in Texas, and they bet him that if they win the district championship, he'll have to try out for a major league team, and even though it's predictable what happens next, it does have it's factual background to back it up. Very heartwarming, and very much worth watching.
