I like how it's generally low-key and kind of a hangout movie. Sort of plays with the typical idea of a baseball movie. Some fun moments along with the way.
I am a baseball fan who — with a few notable exceptions — generally despises baseball films. Your review doesn't make it sound like Eephus will be one of those notable exceptions.
At the risk of parroting Dan Epstein’s comment, I’d say that after reading this, I probably won’t see it.
Yeah, that seems to be the rightful sentiment.
Have you by any chance seen “Just a Bit Outside” yet? It’s more a documentary than anything, but it’s really well done.
No. I'm not familiar with it. I'll have to check it out.
It's about the '82 Brewers and their coming "this close" to winning it all. I think it's streaming on the Roku channel.
Hmm...well you know the Brewers are major rivals of the Cubs so...

You described it well. Definitely low-key.

Yeah, it's far from a perfect baseball film.
