What is bad to say about this movie? I love it, the story is awesome. This particular dvd has tons of extras, for those extra seeking viewers.

A great movie to help kids learn the importance of supporting their siblings, especially those involved in competitive activities. And great source for historical fiction.

4/5 A League of Their Own

I purchased this item for my granddaughter. She is very active in softball. I wanted her to see that women can do the same thing and excel in the sport. She loves the video. My only regret is that I didn't try to get it in DVD form. When our video player goes out we won't be able to view it.

4/5 Geena Davis Makes It A Winning Picture
  by Craig Connell (Lockport, NY USA)
As a sports fan, it's fun to see a film of a little different nature, the case here being women's professional baseball - something that actually took place for a short time during World War II.

The best thing going for the film, in my opinion, was a very likable lead character - someone you could really root for - in Geena Davis' character "Dottie Hinson." She made the movie, as far as I was concerned as the rest of the cast - although good - was not particularly likable.

For instance, Tom Hanks plays a profane, drunken manager, and not a lot of laughs except for famous, "There is no crying in baseball" line which has become famous. Then there is the family-friendly Madonna and Rosie O'Donnell. Yikes! Actually, Madonna plays a nice, subdued character and she's okay to watch but, frankly, it's hard for me to warm up to O'Donnell in any role. Just hearing that voice is enough to call 'time out' and stop the game. Many of the men in here are generally pictured as sexist idiots, which is the way left-wing Hollywood likes to portray men.

I wouldn't call it a family film, not with the profanity in here. However, it is an entertaining adult movie that has a lot of charm to it and is recommended, especially if you're a baseball fan.
