John DeFore

The Hollywood Reporter

While the film effectively captures Dustin's ambivalence and melancholy about giving up on baseball, the love story isn't nearly persuasive, and Dustin's core failure as a person...just feels like a device lifted from bigger sports dramas.

Tribune News Service

Doneger's writing gets a little scattered when the story shifts away from the star-crossed lovers. But when he brings the focus back to them, the story works.

Rated: 2.5/4

Kimber Myers

Los Angeles Times

It's better than a number of indie films in its craft - particularly the thoughtfully composed cinematography from Kieran Murphy - but a flawed script ultimately keeps it from eking out a win.

Lyles' Movie Files

Doneger needed a bit more of ... something to make the film truly connect. It's in this weird spot of being inoffensive and uninteresting.

Rated: 6/10

If you are a fan of baseball, you'll really enjoy this. This is a movie for the whole family. And if you follow baseball, this is a real life-based story about the travels through the baseball system, with the player trying to make it to the big time A very inspirational movie, and one for the family. I really really enjoyed it. Very well put together.

This was an awful movie. The romance was not a true romance because the love was completely one sided. The hero was a selfish man-child who only cared about himself.

When baseball player Dustin, edges closer to 30 years old, he contemplates his past 9 years attempting to make the major leagues. Chasing the high of being in the spotlight, he left behind much of his life to follow his dream. After making a choice to retire, Dustin returns home and must reopen the story books he once closed years prior. Brampton's Own harps on the importance of family, decision making and the clock of life that never stops ticking. When he is reminded of the sparks that once flew between him and his first love, he has to dig deep to discover what he really wants out of life. I love the way this romance portrays comforts role in many people's lives. It is easy to make decisions, especially ones that are inside our comfort zone. I can't wait to see this movie with my significant other again soon!
