I went to see this today. Let me preface by saying I am a huge baseball fan, and a huge fan of the Jackie Robinson story, and I went in expecting to enjoy the movie.
Holy shyt what a terrible movie this was. The acting was awful. The over-dramatized music behind every. single. scene. The choppiness of each scene. I watched for about 20 minutes, until when the little kid in the stands was explaining a balk to his mom, and then I walked out, switched theaters and saw Oblivion, which was surprisingly good.
This movie felt more like something I would have been forced to watch in class in 5th grade than a blockbuster movie.
