One of the best baseball movies of all time, as well as one of the sexiest romances ever put on celluloid. Sarandon is smart and sizzling.

Alas, there's too much chatter in the piece, too much posturing by Shelton, too many lazy takes and too much unchecked bloat.

Bull Durham is a film with spring fever, a giddy, playful look at life in baseball's minor leagues.

Bull Durham is the best movie ever made about baseball, and it's not even really that close.

Works better as a romance than as a sports flick, but it's still sly, smart and very funny.
07/25/02
A solid triple

Top CriticBull Durham has the look and feel of one of baseball’s true ballparks

Though Costner's character is a bit stereotypical -- the embittered veteran player -- he plays the role well.
