Summary: Why didn't they leave well enough alone?
Review: I have no idea if this film ever made it into the theaters, but I'm thankful I didn't get the opportunity to spend the eight bucks to see it. This movie is worth one viewing for the purpose of seeing what they could come up with next. Unfortunately, this movie fell far short of expectations and had all of the charm of Rookie of the Year.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Cool movie
Review: I like this movie, I'm glad that 5 of the characters from the second one:
Roger Dorn(Corbin Bernsen) is the owner of the Twins and his team is bad.
Pedro Carrano(Dennis Haysbert) is back, does awesome, and is back to voo-doo after quitting Buddhism.
Taka Tanaka(Takaaki Ishibashi) is another good hitter like Cerrano.
Rube Baker(Eric Bruskotter) has his control problems back.
Harry Doyle(Bob Uecker) is back with more commentary.

New Faces:
Juan Lopez 1
Juan Lopez 2
Billy "Downtown" Anderson
Lance Pere
Craig "Pops" Morgan
Hog Ellis
Carlton "Doc" Windgate
Carlos Liston
Leonard Huff

Summary: Great casting of extras.
Review: I loved this movie. Enjoyable to watch, even if not as funny as the first two. But the best part is probably the guy behind home plate at the Metrodome wearing a bright blue wig, red shorts, a white tank top, and sunglasses. A better person couldn't have been found.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Movie!
Review: I think the movie would have been better if Tom Berenger and Charlie Sheen were in it, but the storyline was great. There were many comical scenes in the movie and if you saw the first two major leagues, you have to see this one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Best of the Series!
Review: Major League 3:Back to the Minors is the best of the series Scott Bakula is supprising funny! The creators of this film were abivoulsly going for a Tom Berenger rip-off and they did pretty well this film is based on the same ora of the first two films but takes the story in a different direction instead of being about Jake (Berenger) its about Gus Cantrell (Bakula) this film is a must see! Contains: Lauguage & Mild Violence

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: PISTACHIOS AND CRACKER JACKS
Review: MAJOR LEAGUE: BACK TO THE MINORS is one of those "let's cheer for the underdogs who are up against the nasty ego boys!". And for that, it's a delightful comedy with some great moments. It's not like an AIRPLANE spoof, but it does have some great comedic touches.
Scott Bakula as Gus, the guy who always wanted to make it to the big leagues, is recruited by irrepressible Corbin Bernsen to coach his farm team, The Buzz. Gus is reluctant, but after some persuasion by his lovely girl friend Jensen Daggett, he takes it on. Of course, the team is full of misfits, guys with talents but no one has bothered to show them how to use them: for instance, their ace hittere (Walt Goggins) is a smart-mouthed, self-centered home run hitter--but he can't hit anything else. The catcher Rube (the delightful Erik Bruskotter) throws his catches over the wall; the outfielder, Pops Morgan, has gotten out of shape and needs to play first base; their pitcher is a cool dude who has one pitch--the fastball that everybody expects and hits out of the park; and another pitcher who pitches so slow, he doesn't even register on the speedometer! Fortunately, Dennis Haysbert and Takaaki Ishibashi are back from the second movie, and they add not only some good hitting, but some wacky humor.
Ted McGinley as the twin's pompous, selfloving manager, proves again how underappreciated he is. Although having on a hit on TV's Hope and Faith, McGinley's never achieved the status he could have as the good looking, if disgusting, pretty boy! He's great in this one. Add Bob Uecker's hilarious commentary and the big game, you get what you expect: the underdogs come out on top!
I enjoyed this movie; it made me laugh and cheer!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: this movie should never have existed
Review: Not even the same team is used from the first two movies. Most of the original actors no better than to go anywhere near this awful third installment. If you want to see a good baseball movie watch the first two but avoid this movie at all costs.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Underrated by many
Review: People think Major League, and they think Rick "The Wild Thing" Vaughn, Willie "Mays" Hayes and Pedro Cerrano. This film has nothing to do with those Indians teams from 1 & 2, but that doesn't mean it's bad.

I think they should have just simply renamed the film. There's nothing wrong with having a different name for a film with a few of the same characters such as Roger Dorn, Pedro Cerrano and Taka Tanaka.

This movie comes out with some good baseball knowledge for both on the field and off the field stuff. Pops McGee and Doc who's fastballs couldn't kill a fly if it hit is straight on are great examples of what you see in the minors. Guys with heart who just aren't good enough to make it to the Bigs. Then there's the prima donna top prospect "Downtown" Anderson who thinks he's the next Ken Griffey Jr.

This film is meant to be fun, it's not supposed to be Bull Durham. It delivers what it wanted to deliver...entertainment. Especially for the baseball fan who doesn't want to see a monkey or a 10 year become a major leaguer. Although Little Big League is underrated as well, but that's a different story.

I would give this movie 3.5 out of 5 stars if it were possible, but we can't vote like that here, so I rounded it up.
