Catch the movie that flew over the fence and into the hearts of millions of cheering fans! It's Disney's ANGELS IN THE OUTFIELD, the feel-good film of the year about a young boy praying for a father -- and a struggling baseball team praying for a pennant. Danny Glover plays George Knox, the frustrated coach of the California Angels, a ragtag team of major-league misfits who are down on their luck. But things begin to look up when 11-year-old Roger, their biggest fan, starts giving Knox some winning tips from a real live angel named Al (Christopher Lloyd). The team miraculously climbs back into the pennant race ... all the while learning to believe in themselves. With its heavenly mix of outrageous comedy, dazzling special effects, and amazing baseball action, Disney's ANGELS IN THE OUTFIELD is an entertainment home run for the whole family!

Summary: "Championships Have To Be Won On There Own, It's A Rule"
Comment: In an attempt to repeat the magic and financial success they had with `The Mighty Ducks' (92) two years previously, Disney turned their attention to major league baseball and the hometown Angels. Deciding to do a remake of the '51 film `Angels in the Outfield' which starred Paul Douglas they had all they needed available right from the beginning; a tried and true storyline to work from and access to a local, professional baseball team. What could make things more perfect? Well how about the fact that the team in question just happened to be named the Angels fitting perfectly into the title and theme of the proposed film! Ahh..., the genius of the Disney machine is a beautiful thing to observe isn't it?

The end result of their endeavors, `Angels in the Outfield' is definitely a kid friendly film that the whole family can not only enjoy but the wise parent may even be able to use some aspects of the storyline as "teachable moments" with their children. Maybe a conversation on the plight of the orphan and the importance of parenting might be in order, or on a more personal, human potential level how confidence in yourself and your own abilities can lead to miraculous achievements? if you're more spiritually oriented you may wish to use the film to initiate a discussion on the existence and function of angels and the role of faith? One that immediately comes to mind is the warning that smoking is hazardous to your health (remember at the end when Al (Christopher Lloyd) the boss angel informs Roger (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) that one of the players will be playing for the REAL Angels soon due to his twenty year smoking habit). Leave it to Disney to not only entertain, but instruct (I hope you realize I'm being facetious).

Summary: Friendship, Love, Baseball, and Angels
Comment: I first watched this film before I became a teenager, and it made such a huge impression on me because it had so much friendship, love, comedy, and the-power-of-faith-to-change-people's-lives in it. It instantly became one of my all-time favorite films. Several years later, I became an adult and this film still means so much to me. I know it involves baseball, but you don't have to love baseball in order to appreciate it. Personally, I don't like sports, but I love this film so much. If you value friendship, love, faith in a higher power, and togetherness, I think you will love this film. This film is about a baseball team that has constantly lost games and their journey to the top. But it is also about an undying friendship between two boys from different races and how much love and faith can make a huge difference in people's lives. It is a very realistic film in the sense that some of the characters experienced losses and victories. And the definition of family is what you make it. For instance, you don't have to share the same race with someone in order to have a special bond with them, and you can still live a happy life. This film was able to portray this and the fact that it is good to be open-minded and accept people as they are. In addition, I learned that in life you don't always get what you want but if you play your part and believe, you can win. It's a very beautiful family movie, and if you haven't already watched it I highly recommend that you do.
