The movie can be enjoyed by anyone, not just sports fans. Underdog stories simply don't get better than this. July 10, 2014 | Full Review…

So rife with underdog victors and hairpin twists of fortune that, if it weren't all true, no one would believe it. January 30, 2014 | Full Review…

The Battered Bastards of Baseball is not just about baseball. It transcends the game and is a charming anti-establishment yarn that should delight audiences who don't even know an r.b.i. from a balk. January 26, 2014 | Full Review…

The footage builds in such a way that it's impossible to not get caught up in the enthusiasm of a bunch of unruly players and their larger-than-life Hollywood owner defying the conventions of the uptight Minor League establishment. December 11, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

A hugely entertaining, almost completely untold story, like "Slap Shot," albeit with much less drugs, fighting and general debauchery July 31, 2014 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Inevitably, some of the key moments in the team's history were never filmed, but "Battered Bastards" still does a good job of capturing the feel of a feverish Civic Stadium in the 1970s. July 9, 2014 | Rating: A- | Full Review…

"Bastards" works because it has two storytellers with a personal desire to tell a story that nobody else seems to have wanted to tell. So what if it's a glorified home movie? June 26, 2014 | Rating: B+
