About this movie

Gus Lobel (Clint Eastwood) has been a top baseball scout for decades, but age has caught up with him. The Atlanta Braves' front office is questioning his judgment, especially with a hot batting phenom on deck for the draft. Enter Gus's estranged daughter, Mickey (Amy Adams), an ambitious attorney on the partner track who joins him on a scouting trip, jeopardizing her own career to save his. Justin Timberlake also stars as a rival scout with his sights on an announcing career -- and his eyes on Mickey. MPAA Rating: PG-13 © 2012 Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.

Trouble with the curve. This movie wasn't all that wonderful. Timberlake should stick with singing. Eastwood is to old to act. Adams was ok but she has done better. Just ok.

Tropes on top of tropes on top of tropes. Amy Adams was good, and Timberlake was passable, but this was a downright terrible baseball movie that seems to misunderstand everything about how prospect evaluation works.

Clint Eastwood portrays the aging scout with fierce heart and true - to - life evasion of health problems. Amy Adams beautifully plays the loving daughter with spirit and real-life tenacity.
