A hilariously offensive look at little league baseball. I mean, who lets a kid in a wheelchair play baseball (And how for that matter)???!!!
Decent remake. Watch the original if you want to see Bad News Bears though
As someone who hasn't seen the original and so has nothing to compare, I liked this a lot. It's "Bad Santa does Baseball"
A remake of the classic baseball movie. Good attempt
A pretty funny remake of the original movie. Billy Bob is his usual funny self
Funny movie for when I was younger but not sure it aged well.
Pretty funny, but nothing super special.
This is really enjoyable and Billy Bob is perfect casting for the role.
A great remake of the original. I like the classical music. Think its Greig.
Billy Bob Thornton is fine but doesn’t do enough to separate or improve on the original. Go watch that one again instead.
