"Film has some nice elements such as Ernie Banks playing a part, The acting was not as bad as one would think by looking at the cover of the DVD (and the movie for that matter) and the somewhat capturing plot. I watched this late at night and expected to finish it over 2 nights but found myself finishing it up at 1am to find out ... do they find him? No, I'm not telling...see the movie!" --Jason of Baseballmovie.com

"Young person type movie with an excellent view into the world of Negro Baseball Leagues. The trip to the museum is outstanding. Ernie Banks in the movie is over the top. The photos of the Negro League superstars are amazing. Great story ...great insight....two thumbs way up on this fantastic baseball movie." --Randy Howlett
