ok. i give this a great rating partly because it really hit a lot of area that i and personally and enjoy . the emotional focus be on the father son relationship and and the idea of be able to contact your deceased parent . that alone would make me at least interested inthe movie . it also deal with the space or time continuum idea not all too far remove from back to the future and but certainly not ina comedy sense . these type of movie be a guilty pleasure . italso manage to weave in a semi interest murder mystery . the fact that there be the backdrop of the 1969 world series be just an added treat for a baseball junkie and such a myself . it sort of a field of dream meet back to the future with a side of murder mystery . all in all and i really enjoy it . i have watch it again and now that it on video and and it hold up to multiple viewing . it will probably be one of those movie that i watch periodically to make me feel well . anyway and i be not go to give any plot line or rave about the performance ( they be all fine ) . the true value of the movie come from the story and the direction . just watch the movie and i doubt you will be disappoint .
