The Babe- 1992, Directed by Arthur Hiller, starring John Goodman, Kelly McGillis, and Bruce Boxleitner
He says- Agreeably sentimental, old-fashioned bio of the great Babe Ruth is largely a vehicle for Goodman, who's terrific in the lead. Though facts are tampered with and often ignored, the essence of this larger-than-life character (and his genuine love of baseball) still comes through. 3 stars
I say- This was a good movie. I enjoyed John Goodman, and I thought his portrayal was great. Really overly sappy in many spots, which got annoying. Worth a watch if you're a baseball fan. 2 and a half stars
