    It's no surprise, and it's trite, but sometimes fun -- and not magic -- is more than enough.
  2. Fuzzy, feel-good movie about baseball, babes and believing in yourself.

    Too bad the movie didn't take its own advice and risk coming up with a fresh story.
  4. Neither drama nor comedy, Summer Catch is a long, slow lob of a movie that never crosses the plate.

    I love this movie and how it is about baseball on the cap everyone should see this movie.

    I give it a 4 because of Biel's trunk. Whats the deal with the 5 rating you say? The extra one is reserved for the finger I gave the director during the closing credits for wasting money, the actors time, and ultimately a hour and a half of my life. The climax only lasted for 5 seconds then there was no point in watching the rest. Expand
