Real good movie though slow at times. Ended well and was not in anyway a waste of time. I think overall, I would give it a 7.5 out of 10.

This is a tough one to leave a rating for. We have Eastwood playing the grumpy old man which seems to have become his staple character in later years. There’s a good cast involved and mostly decent performances. The main drama is decent but not really adding anything new. Like so many of these sports films, the baseball aspect is rather unrealistic but I guess it serves its purpose as a plot device. All around, it’s mostly average across the board.

I enjoyed 'Trouble with the Curve'. There are a few too many moments of cringe for my liking, renditions of 'You Are My Sunshine' included, but as a whole it's a solidly entertaining sports flick - with added love drama. The cast are the film's major plus, with Clint Eastwood - in his first strictly acting role since the early 1990s and last to date of review - and Amy Adams naturally sticking out most. Other cast members include Justin Timberlake, Matthew Lillard, John Goodman and Scott Eastwood - the latter shares a scene with his father, which is nice. A few different choices by the filmmakers and I'd be rating this a tad higher, but as is it's a good film - one that is worth a watch.

>"Anybody who uses computers doesn't know a damn thing about this game." This movie is like Moneyball if you made it a Hallmark special and removed all the Sorkinisms. JT and Amy Adams are great together though.

I'm a sucker for a sports genre movie - always have been. And I've watched some really good ones lately, that I either wasn't aware of or wasn't expecting to like. Trouble with the Curve stars Clint Eastwood as an elderly baseball scout, who's sight is failing him an More
