frankebriscoe If you like real stories with real people and seeing the underdog do the impossible, then this is for you. It is for all ages, you will NOT be disappointed. The story teaches some valuable life lessons. It shows what faith and determination can do, with a desire to DO and not just dream. It also takes skills and giving 100% to achieve something that you believe in. It shows love for others, which seems to be lacking in this world sometimes. It shows that everyone who is willing to work is worthy of being taken seriously. It also shows that discrimination should not be part of who we are, that everyone is of worth. It is not your action packed movie, but it you let it, it will tug at your heart strings and hopefully make you see life a bit better.

jthunder93 I thought the acting was great, but I was not a huge fan of the baseball scenes. The throwing mechanics of several of these players was awful...and there was one scene where Angel supposedly threw a strike, yet the ball was clearly spiked (thrown in the dirt). That's really the only thing missing, and I felt it was significant enough to warrant giving it a 7 out of 10. Definitely an inspiring movie though, and you could sense the support the team gained along the way. I do realize that they have changed a few things from the true story, such as the quantity of time spent playing baseball prior to leaving for America. I loved the incorporation of the actual footage into the movie. It was a bit weird too with the several instances where the coach/someone would say, "they don't speak English," yet the movie was entirely in English.

latriciasaucier This movie was very inspirational. I have to admit, I did not know about the true story at all, so after watching this film, it made me want to know more. I actually read about the Monterrey Industrial little league team, and why they were called the little giants. I also read about Angel Maccias after wards. I am very glad this movie came out, it helped me learn some history. This is a must see film. Don't forget to research the true story it is based off. The film is based on a true story about a group of kids from Mexico who played in the little league world series. It is about having faith and never giving up no matter how tough the road is. I have watched this movie three times and I brought the movie. I highly recommend it.

bonimdb I went to see this movie because my daughter loves sports movies. It was completely enjoyable although a little bit clichéd. The acting was not that good but there were so many feel good moments that I could completely forgive any faults I may have found. I even clapped at the end. My daughter's friend was cheering as if he were actually at the game. What made this even more special is the knowledge that this "perfect" game actually happened and, along with the end credits, we got to see the actual players. This is a great movie for the whole family, and that in itself, is a great feat!
