Keith Phipps The Reveal (Substack) Eephus lets that sense of finality hum as background noise to a low-key comedy built around an Altman-esque ensemble of colorful characters who drift in and out of the spotlight as they day progresses. May 18, 2025 Full Review Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (LAist) This movie is something of an eephus: a long, slow, looping thing that's meant to distract and delay... It's about community, and it's kind of beautiful. May 9, 2025 Full Review Adam Kempenaar Filmspotting Every baseball movie asks us to believe the game is a metaphor for life. Lund isn’t asking. Rated: 3.5/5 May 2, 2025 Full Review Samantha Schuster Cinéfilo Serial A small, heartfelt film that, with a nostalgic tone, portrays the end of an era and the difficulty of letting go. A story about bonds and for baseball fans, but one that general audiences will also enjoy. [Full Review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Jul 16, 2025 Full Review Alise Chaffins MacGuffin or Meaning (Substack) The film Eephus isn’t a distraction but a slow-moving story that may catch you off guard. But rather than a strikeout, this is a home run. Rated: 4/5 Jul 15, 2025 Full Review JD Duran InSession Film The comradery on display in this film hit me in such a singular way that it's almost hard to describe. If they ever make a hockey version of this, I will uncontrollably sob the entire way through. Rated: A Jul 2, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

robert w Nothingno reason to watch (or make) this film. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/01/25 Full Review Corey Boring and pointless. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/25 Full Review Matthew A beautiful and rambling film about baseball and life, which is beautiful and rambling. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/27/25 Full Review Vincent Delightful film. Its a movie that stays with you long after the credits have rolled. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/23/25 Full Review Todd W I remember a little league game I was in, extra innings on a school night and at least 11pm, a teammate’s mom, who wasn’t at the game, came to make him come home lol. I’m glad my mom and dad always understood and share the love of the game of baseball. That’s what this movie did for me, brought back many memories of the greatest sport ever! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/22/25 Full Review Flex Luthor Great pace and great characters. The overt sense of communal loss really humanizes this cast fullnof goobers. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/21/25 Full Review Read all reviews
