A Guy’s List Of The Most Realistic Baseball Movies From The Last Few Years
Over the years, there have been some brilliant films about Baseball. Whether they are comedies, dramas, or films involving the subject of romance, there are baseball films that have embedded themselves into the movie hall of fame (if such a thing existed).
In my opinion, the following films are some of the best baseball movies to ever be released.
One film about baseball that I love is The Scout, featuring a young Brendan Frasier as a prodigal player who can pitch like it’s his job (it is) and hit balls out of the park with the best of them. Albert Brooks stars in this film as the scout who discovers this talent.
While the original Major League film set the precedent, Major League 3 remains my favorite in this series of baseball movies. This is one of Charlie Sheen’s best roles and any time this movie is on, I feel the need to watch it in its entirety.
Walter Mathau stars in the original Bad News Bears, which was recently remade with Billy Bob Thornton reprising the role of Mr Buttermaker, an alcoholic coach who takes on an unenthusiastic group of little league baseball players.
Field of Dreams remains one of Kevin Costner’s greatest films to this day. True, he hasn’t done much recently, but even if he did my statement would hold true! This movie encapsulates the spirit of American baseball and puts it into film.
One of the best Baseball dramas of all time is Bull Durham. The film has somewhat of a love triangle plot to it, so if you are looking for a date movie on a Friday night, this classic will fit the bill. Any fan of baseball would be foolish to miss this one.
As it stands, this is my list. Baseball films are released so often, however, that I may have to revise the list in a few years!
