billy crystal have copy all of the bad feature of movie and such a a league of their own and that let sentimentality overwhelm what might have be an interesting story in someone else hand . the gloppy music and the flashback and the cardboard character all make this movie a waste of two hour and ten minute . the use of slow motion at the end be painful and those close note be trite . have there ever be a good baseball movie . a league of their own be entertain and but sticky sweet . bang the drum slowly do not quite measure up to the book . field of dream be manipulative and corny [ no pun intend ] . and that not even count monstrosity like the babe ruth story or ronald reagan a grover cleveland alexander . i haven not see the hank greenberg documentary and but it appear to me that there simply be not enough in the game to make a decent drama out of . ken burn nine part documentary prove the point .
