Leave your thoughts about The Scout.
| Washington PostHal HinsonA genuine -- and immensely enjoyable -- curiosity. |
| TIME MagazineRichard SchickelThe Scout is the best comedy-fantasy about baseball ever made, which goes to show that if Hollywood keeps trying, eventually someone will get it right. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertRarely does a movie start high and go downhill so fast. It's as if the filmmakers progressively lost their nerve with every additional scene. |
| Apollo GuideRyan CracknellBaseball fans will hate The Scout because it makes a mockery of the game. Not quite as badly as Ed, which stars a monkey as the star pitcher, but close. Non-baseball fans will hate it because it's not funny. |
| VarietyBrian LowryEven with the modest allure of Albert Brooks in what amounts to a mainstream effort, The Scout should get a quick trip to the showers. |
| User ReviewKelsey YAwesome baseball movie!! I've seen it 3 times so far! |
| User ReviewOommen CWATCH MY UNCLE LANE SMITH-LEGEND OF BAGGAR VANCE-MYCOUSIN VINNY-ETC. WAS THE ORIGINAL JACK NICHOLSON ROLE ON BROADWAY FOR ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOOS NEST!!! |
| User Reviewdeb joh this one is so funny, brendan is absolutely great! |
| User ReviewBrian JReally likes this movie, all though is should be on HBO more cuz i would like to see it again |
| User Reviewcli oOnce again, Albert Brooks delivers a great performance and yet still manages to maintain his title as the most underrated comedic actor in recent history. Brendan Fraser is also not bad as a goofy man-child type. |
