Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): After Wally Backman flies out to the Red Sox left fielder leading off the bottom of the 10th inning, Michael Keaton's character says something about how he flew out to the right fielder. Even the most novice baseball fan wouldn't make this mistake. more

Incredibly Well Done, 5 March 2006
9/10
Author: Howardr675 from United States

I saw this movie with about 300 people as a screening for a film class. About 1/2 the audience did not like it and the other 1/2 did. Many saw it as a baseball movie. I saw it as a movie about fear of failure and the expectation of failure in life by many. I felt that the script relating the expectations of the Boston Red Sox fans who feel the curse and expect to lose was incredibly written to parallel how this can relate to the way a person visualizes his life and dreams (real or imagined). The script was brilliant, the acting was extraordinary. I don't know that this will work commercially but I was moved by this movie more than any movie I have seen in a long time. Too me, this was not a baseball movie, this was a brilliant look into the the mind of more people than we would like to believe.
