The Perfect Game
The Perfect Game proves that you don’t always have to reach for lofty heights to work. It’s certainly not a classic. It’s a simple pleasure for those times when that’s all you need.

Touching Home
Touching Home is stronger when it focuses on the small-town life than when it steps on the ball diamond. The decent cast elevates it to a tolerable level.

Road to the Big Leagues
Although somewhat soft in tackling some of the more controversial aspects, it is still a fascinating look at the sport outside of the bright stadium lights and manicured lawns of the big leagues.
The Rocketeer
While The Rocketeer never crashes, it’s a bumpy ride of cartoonish characters, a flimsy plot and an overall sense of letdown.

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides continues to steer the same course as its predecessor sequels, focusing on convoluted storylines that zap all the fun and energy that made the first film so great.
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
It might be filled with endless chases, but I was still completely bored throughout. Despite a glitzy facade of stunning desert visuals, the action felt recycled.

Safe at Home!
Instead it feels more like a publicity stunt meant to up the stock of Mantle, Maris and the polarizing New York Yankees.

Pastime
Plays an honorable game, tackling the touchy subject of ageism on the baseball field. But it’s ultimately a hollow attempt, one that thinks that just by touching on a subject that it makes up a plot.
Sonicsgate
A rebel film both in its subject matter and its unorthodox distribution.
Toy Story 3
Pixar have once again reminded me that there is a way to create a film that not only appeals to just about everyone, but also prove that three-quels need not suck.
