Acute movie
Added 9/25/2009
I think it's fair to say every Red Sox fan has seen this movie. And i think it's fair to say in New England every knows where they were the night the Sox finally won it. I certainly do!!!
Not to go into detail, you can read hundreds of the other reviews for details and plots. This is a nice, sweet, funny, love story, made by two New Englanders, who love the Sox for better or worse. This is a perfect movie to watch with your sweetheart if you don't want to watch a movie like The Notebook or those other thousands of rom/coms. Cause it has baseball, guys like baseball, haha. The movie appeals to both sexes.

Not nearly as good as the book
Added 9/22/2009
Fun enough to watch, but am I the only one who feels it's sanitized? Everything is all so nice and works out in the end, Red Sox included. Although I haven't seen the 1997 Colin Firth film, I did read the book that both were based on and gave it 5 stars:
Fever Pitch
Have you heard "If you liked the movie, you'll love the book"? I'm not sure that's true here. Interestingly, this movie was released as "The Perfect Catch" overseas. Probably because it is unrecognizable from Nick Hornby's book.
The Farrelly Brothers are not Orson Welles, and while this isn't full of potty humor like some of their other movies, nor is it an art house film. You don't need to pay close attention, everything is spelled out for you (sometimes multiple times!). Drew Barrymore knows romantic comedies but I think Jimmy Fallon is more surprising, and impressive. Ultimately it's a chick flick, and I suppose there's not too many of those about sports.

Great Baseball Movie
Added 7/15/2009
I was really impressed with this movie. It was great acting and Jimmy Fallon who is usually to much for me was really great at acting and just being the character that he was playing. Drew Barrymore acted the way she always does there was nothing to different about the acting but it was great. I would watch this movie over and over again. I would recommend this movie to anyone who loves a wonderful made romantic comedy.
