i liked the film. i can see how some would see it the way they do. and i certainly agree it's not a movie to watch on a plane.

the movie, intentionally or unintentionally has a certain off-temponess to it. it has a certain, apparently deliberate, slow and controlled tempo. it's a quirky movie.

it has major weaknesses for sure. i think the whole baseball thing was way too contrived. but it was used to fit into the whole notion that there is a reason for everything, and perhaps only a homerun/strike out slugger could have taken care of the situation. but that is a bit pathetic.

it's a movie to sit back, relax, and watch a bit of inaninity.
