Good concept, poorly executed.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Bull Durham is a comedic baseball film starring Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon, and Tim Robbins. The film centers around an older baseball player and a vary talented rookie. Then, there's a woman who hooks up with a baseball player every season and kinda takes him under her wing. She does that with the rookie (Tim Robbins) this season and that's where our movie begins... The acting in this movie and the on screen chemistry between the characters is what makes this movie work. Yes, it's technically a sports movie, but it doesn't really center around baseball too much. It focuses on the characters and their relationships with one another. It really has something in it for everyone. It has really good comedy that works, some romance, sports of course, and some serious moments. There are many lines from this film that I would consider to be some of the best lines in cinema. No wonder it's writing got an academy award nomination. I really like this movie, it's just good entertainment. 8/10 for Bull Durham.

Greetings from Lithuania."Bull Durham" (1988) is about baseball and about falling in love. Sounds corny, but it's all about that actually. It works both, it not a deep romantic story, but it sure knows a lot about baseball. Performces are very good in here, especially by Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon. Susan Sarandon should have been probably even considered for Oscar for best role, she is that good in here. Kevin Costner is more or less is Kevin Costner is here, which is also a good thing.Overall, "Bull Durham" is a very enjoyable romantic sports movie. Story is very simple, and the approach to it is also easy and enjoyable. At running time 1 h 40 min this movie barely drags and it's an entertaining easy ride.

Thank you Kevin Costner for pronouncing Visalia correctly. You are honestly one of the few actors who can pull it off. Just watched after not having seen this movie in years - I know I sound incredibly old and cliché but movies aren't like this anymore. A movie that truly loves the game of baseball with no agenda, no trying to force reality down your throat, no tearing down of the game, the institution, the players, or the fans. The three leads are so young, Tim Robbins in particular is practically unrecognizable. Reality is everywhere, it was a nice break to escape into a few hours of the love and romance of baseball.

Bull Durham is a really good baseball film that doesn't only give you the finer points of baseball, but it supplies the audience with a good amount of well-developed characters. This film is supposed to be a comedy, but I didn't see it as one. Sure, there were some funny moments but I feel this movie should be seen more as a feel-good drama. With a light atmosphere, this film is a great date night film for sure. Even those who don't like baseball would like this film.Ron Shelton's film is about a 12-year veteran catcher of the minor leagues named Crash Davis who is assigned to mentor hotshot pitcher Ebby "Nuke." Along their moments of bondage, they rival each other in getting the attention of Annie who believes in the "Church of Baseball" and she has a program where she chooses one player per season to be her lover.This film is well-acted. Because of his acting abilities and natural athleticism, Kevin Costner does really well in this film. Perhaps one of his finest film roles rivaling Field of Dreams. Tim Robbins, who is a newcomer here, does very well and is quite a dandy to watch. Susan Sarandon has plenty of talent and she makes great use of it here.Overall, this film is one of the greatest baseball films made. It is not really funny, but more witty. I love the confrontations on the mound between Costner and Robbins since they show such great chemistry. This movie is basically a three-run home run right here. Perhaps one of the finest baseball films to hit this planet thanks to it's big heart and well-developed characters. I rate this film 9/10.
