Definitely worth a watch if you've never seen it. Williams is great as Jack Dundee, a dorky loser haunted by a single act of epic failure that nobody will let him forget (especially himself) and the lengths he goes to in order to try to rewrite his personal history. While Russell's character is important, the story is Jack's. Admittedly it's a bit silly and predictable, but well made and featuring a great cast.
I won't say its a great movie, but very good. It's definitely one of those movies that's a remote dropper for me. |
I have huge respect for Peyton. He made a FaceTime call to my co-workers child who was severely injured in a mower accident. Dudes the real deal. He lifted spirits of a child

Just started watching. Noticed Kirk Cameron plays Kurt Russels son.
Also, the film was written by Ron Shelton, a guy who certainly knows how to make a sports flick. Bull Durham, White Men Can’t Jump, Tin Cup. |
Great movie! I couldn't even count the number of times I've watched it over the years but it has to be well above 40 viewings and probably more.
I also really enjoy Peyton's ESPN+ series, especially when he's baggin' on Tom Brady but this episode felt way to scripted for me to truly enjoy. Kurt Russell is still the coolest ****ing guy in the room. |
Have you guys seen that documentery of Kurt Russells dad and baseball?

One of my favorite scenes is in the garage, where Reno is about to toss Jack's keys to him. He starts the throwing motion, then stops, gets up and hands him the keys instead. That was brutal. LMAO
