Summary: Greatest Sports Film
Review: I saw it in the theaters in '77 when I played little league and never really got over the idea of stealing a van. I liked it better than the original which was good but lacked the depth and incredible climax of the "let them play" scene. Plus, Bob Watson makes a guest appearance. Jackie Earl Haley never got the respect he deserved and probably should have been nominated for an Oscar for his role as Kelly Leak in this film.

Summary: This Movie Speaks to Me
Review: I was seven when this movie came out. Also, I grew up in Houston, spending many nights at the Astrodome, watching the Astros blay ball. The footage of the old Dome's great extinct scoreboard is worth the price of the movie to me. Classic.

Summary: Not as good as the first movie but it's alright.
Review: It was alright but not as good as the first movie and even though I like William Devane I was a little disappointed that Walter Matthau and Tatum O'Neal didn't also star in it but it's a decent movie that I recommend for anyone who likes movies about baseball.

Summary: American Classic
Review: The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training is one of the greatest movies ever made. The plot was great, the acting superb, and the music was wonderful. If this movie doesn't hit an emotional cord when watching it, then you are barely alive. I've seen this movie close to 30 times and it gets better and better each time. I still get choked up when Kelly runs from his father and the field trying to run away from his emotions. Like I said, the acting is superb. All Americans should watch this movie with pride.

Summary: This Movie Speaks to Me
Review: This movie was rushed to market to cash in on the unexpected success of "The Bad News Bears." It might have been a lot better had the original team of writer Bill Lancaster and director Michael Ritchie been involved. Also missed are Walter Matthau and Tatum O'Neal; The Bears are the default stars here, and between lack of experience, weak script and poor directing, they don't really carry it off well. The movie really doesn't start to click until halfway through with the introduction of Mike Leak (William Devane). There are some magical moments that are as powerful as any in the first movie, but I don't care for the "Kelly Leak Show" subplot; how could someone as repulsive as Jackie Earle Haley command more attention and higher billing than a powerhouse like Chris Barnes? Overall, a good baseball movie and an adequate follow-up to it's predecessor.

Review: When asked why they made the long journey, one lone ball player said, we came for the luper(drew barrymore), referring to there injured teamate who lies in a lonely bed unable to attend the game.Before we go out there, is there anything anybody wants to say? I've got something to say(garry hixon)we all know when we came out here to Houston with Mirror Vision, Drewli couldnt come with us, but when we go out there, and the breaks are beating the boys,(mirror vision) if we could just give it all we got, and win just one, for the luper(drew), she'll know about it, and shell be happy.-well what are we waiting for
