About this movie

For anyone who's ever been picked on, put down or pushed around, your heroes are here! Rob Schneider, David Spade and Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) star as three older guys who know what it's like to be bullied. After catching some nasty neighborhood kids picking on a friend's son, they strike back by forming a three-man baseball team to challenge the state's best youth teams. Now, cheered on by every nerd, geek and misfit in town, these underdogs are about to have a field day in this slapstick hit comedy from the director of Big Daddy and Happy Gilmore and producer Adam Sandler.

This movie was dumb, as per usual from the Happy Madison camp, but there was a few laugh out loud moments. The bathroom humor and slapstick started to wear a little thin by the end.

I'm not saying it's a GOOD movie by any stretch, but it is a guilty pleasure. If you're in the mood for some enjoyable schlock, you could do worse.

If people think this is quality filmmaking, humanity really is doomed. Everything in this film has been done better in other, better films. Rob Schneider is not funny and never was funny. His shtick is that he is annoying. STATING THE OBVIOUS IS NOT A JOKE!! It's like the people who made this said "Hey! Happy Gilmore's good. WHY DON'T WE MAKE THAT!!! WITH BASEBALL!!! AND MAKE IT MORE ANNOYING!!!!!!" Seriously, you can just watch Happy Gilmore and get essentially the same experience
