I saw it: in the theater, a couple days ago
Synopsis: a pro baseball team is put together using statistics
My reaction
Concept: 1/4 (Bad). Even if I liked baseball, I couldn't imagine caring at all about this stuff.
Story: 1/4 (Bad). If you've ever seen any movie that's based on a true story, you already know this movie's entire plot.
Characters: 1/4 (Bad). Cliches - and boring cliches. The only entertaining character mysteriously disappears early in the movie.
Dialog: 3/4 (Good)
Pacing: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Cinematography: 3/4 (Good)
Special effects/design: 3/4 (Good)
Acting: 3/4 (Good). I guess it's flawless, but there's no room in the script for anything impressive. The characters just aren't real enough for it.
Music: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Subjective Rating: 5/10 (Indifferent, 2/4). Perfectly harmless. Never unpleasant. Pointless.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.1/4 (Okay)
