I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

In this film, William Dear brings the miraculous heartwarming story of a team from Monterrey and their journey through the country as they take on the Little League in the U.S.The film begins when Cesar Faz (Clifton Collins Jr.) is fired from his job with the St. Louis Cardinals where he worked as a clubhouse attendant. He then moves to Monterrey and there he meets a young baseball-loving boy named Angel Macias (Jake T. Austin). He takes Angel under his wing more or less and Angel rounds up his friends to help make a baseball field in an empty lot. They are persistent with trying to join the Little League and with the blessing of Father Esteban (Cheech Marin) they start their own team with Cesar Faz as their coach. The team consisted of Angel Macias, Enrique Suarez (Jansen Panettiere), Mario Ontiveros (Moises Arias), Norberto Villarreal (Ryan Ochoa), Baltazar Charles (Carlos Padilla), Ricardo Trevino (Gabriel Morales), Jose 'Pepe' Maiz (Alfredo Rodriguez), Gerardo Gonzalez (Mario Quinonez Jr.), and Fidel Ruiz (Anthony Quinonez). They were given three-day visas to play in Texas; Cesar had planned on playing then sight seeing and going home, he did not expect them to win and continue to play games. While they are in the U.S. they find a lot of racism and are seen as the underdogs. The scrawny team from Monterrey shocks everyone by moving up each game and becoming unstoppable. Along their journey they become friends with a sports reporter Frankie (Emilie de Ravin) and groundskeeper, Cool Papa Bell (Louis Gossett, Jr.) who help them in any way they can. The team goes on to play in the World Series where Enrique Suarez hits a grand slam and Angel Macias pitches a perfect game, which still remains the only to be the only one pitched in a World Series Little League Championship game. The story of these boys made for a great film. I really liked this movie because it made sense to me even though I don't know much about baseball. It was a family movie and I could see myself watching it again with my girlfriend and my family because it's heartwarming. The team is Mexican and the director was able to capture that without making them too stereotypical. It was inspiring to watch those little boys go so far with their team and stay modest through it all. They all had strong faith and I liked that they needed a blessing before each game, it was something that I could relate too since I do the sign of the cross before I step in to play. I was surprised to have liked it as much as I did because baseball movies usually don't interest me, but this one really stands out to me. I'm not sure if it's because of the setting or the funny scenes where they overcome racism and language barriers but I really enjoyed this movie. It still amazes me how these kids had never seen a real baseball in the beginning of the movie and had only listened to games on the radio and they went on to accomplish so much. I would definitely recommend this movie to my family and some of my cousins because I know they'd like it too. It has a great story behind it and the team really is inspiring regardless if you like baseball or not.

If you like real stories with real people and seeing the underdog do the impossible, then this is for you. It is for all ages, you will NOT be disappointed. The story teaches some valuable life lessons. It shows what faith and determination can do, with a desire to DO and not just dream. It also takes skills and giving 100% to achieve something that you believe in. It shows love for others, which seems to be lacking in this world sometimes. It shows that everyone who is willing to work is worthy of being taken seriously. It also shows that discrimination should not be part of who we are, that everyone is of worth. It is not your action packed movie, but it you let it, it will tug at your heart strings and hopefully make you see life a bit better.

The indication 'based on a true story' is supposed to be a cover-up for all the cheap clichés in film. The story is a fiction about a underdog miracle team. The true story is a lot different, because the little league Industriales de Monterrey team had played two seasons on the local 4 team little league circuit before participating for the world series in the US. They were so dominant that year that they repeated their world series win the following year. It was the US's trauma the Americans could not explain, so the film comes up with an explanation: the miracle myth. So 'the true story' has nothing to do with a miracle, nor underdogs. Sorry for the spoilers... I still recommend watching it...

This is an absolutely wonderful film in every respect. Don't be thrown off by the critics. They are wrong! I went away feeling that this is one of the most enjoyable films that I have ever seen. Wheras it is an excellent "family" film, it will be enjoyed by people of all ages. Bring along a tissue or two. Some of the scenes will bring forth an overwhelming emotional rush of what those boys were able to accomplish. What is so amazing is that the story is actually true. I can't believe that the release had so little publicity and is playing in so few theaters in the US. I saw it by accident. Don't miss it. It is WONDERFUL
