"An incredible film about unfulfilled desires, topped off by a great ending. This is a film that everyone must see. What a swan song for Burt Lancaster! RIP Burt Lancaster and Ray Liotta."

"It was alright but not the greatest movie. May have a good quote, but not necessarily an amazing result "

"This movie is about more than just a baseball field; it's about regrets, fulfilling your dreams, and about your heroes. I think it's one of (if not the) best representations of Heaven in film, but this film also speaks to sports lovers on a deeper level. I consider this a must-see classic, as it reminds me of all the people who have loved and played the sport of baseball throughout their entire life- my mother, and her father, and his father before that. A family movie that can both be a comforting, casual watch, and a film with a thousand different hidden messages. "

"A baseball movie meant to be inspirational. I didn’t find it as inspirational for me but I do like the fact Ray gets to see his father again. Kind of makes me wish I could see spirits like that."

"Happy #baseball Season! In this charming #sports #fantasy, Kevin Costner plays a baseball-loving farmer, Ray, who never reconciled with his father following a fight they had when Ray was a teenager. He begins hearing a voice telling him, "If you build it, he will come." This, combined with a vision of disgraced White Sox player "Shoeless" Joe Jackson (a native of my hometown, btw) leads him to believe that Jackson will appear if he builds a baseball field. It's a hard sell to his wife, Annie, but she agrees, and he does it, declaring, "I have just built something completely illogical." After a time, Shoeless Joe does appear, disoriented, at first, by his own ghostly presence. Joe is followed by his disgraced former teammates, and, later, other players from the game's past. As the voice sends Ray to recruit a controversial and influential, but discouraged, fictitious former author (portrayed by the great James Earl Jones), Ray is forced to analyze his relationship with his father.
This is an uplifting film that tells us to believe in the impossible, especially when it's calling to us, and to cherish our relationships. I enjoyed it a lot, which is why I was disappointed when it screeched to a halt, seemingly from nowhere, with almost no descending action. I give it 2 hot dogs and 2 beers (that's 4) out of 5."
