Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times 05/17/2012
2.5/5
This overlong movie never builds sufficient momentum. Go to Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens 11/26/2019
Much like a baseball team, The Yankles is not just filled with heart. It has depth and layers within its various elements, which bring the drama and deeper meaning to the film beyond the obvious laughter. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

06/16/2019 A lot of fun and great music See more 06/23/2012 The best kosher baseball movie out there, I love watching sports movies especially baseball ones, you can never have enough of them, and this ones totally kosher, so don't be a putz or a smuck and watch it. Ralph from Happy Days is in, flashback, is pretty good, as the dad, Donny gives his Most in this part. See more 06/12/2012 Not bad. A little slow, and fairly predictable. At the same time, fun in spots. Suffers from "low budget-itis" a little bit. Still, fun to see Don Most again! See more 05/26/2012 A little slow but entertaining in a strange way. See more 12/06/2011 There's a terrific sports comedy hiding inside The Yankles, a movie that is subtler, less dogmatic and better-equipped to handle its more compelling ideas. See more 04/07/2011 I've seen this movie twice already, and I LOVED it! I can't wait until it's released to all the theaters so I can take everyone I know, and let them see for themselves what I've been raving about! See more Read all reviews
