Bull Durham [Criterion Collection] [DVD] [1988]

I have probably seen Bull Durham at least 30 times since the movie was first released (VHS, then DVD, now Blu-Ray DVD), and even now, it's as funny and uplifting as ever. IMHO, you do NOT have to be a baseball fan to appreciate this movie, but it certainly helps--especially if you're familiar with Minor-League professional baseball. As a youngster, I remember seeing Max Patkin, the Clown Prince of Baseball, perform in person at more than one minor-league game in our city (Reading, PA, now known as Baseballtown, USA). In those days, the clubs did whatever they could to get folks into the stands, and IMHO, Bull Durham is a pretty accurate representation of those times. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Kevin Costner and Tim Robbins get a lot of screen time, either :-) . Sassy, smart, funny, enduring--take a seat and join The Church of Baseball!

This movie is great. One of the best baseball comedies of all time. Kevin Costner is the best.

This is a older movie that I originally saw in a movie theater and was delighted when I was able to purchase it from BestBuy at a good price so my wife, who has not seen it, can watch it anytime we want.

This is a classic. Kevin is the sports movie guru. I watch every year before the baseball season starts

Love this old school baseball movie from the 1980's.

Just a great movie to pull out and enjoy! My husband especially enjoys this movie, but so do I!

This is a classic film which at first glance is about baseball but so much more.

always good to sit down and watch a classic - even if you've seen it before!
