Brampton's Own

The sickest thing about this movie is the world is full of men like this a woman that will leave a truly good man to chase and wait for the guy to end the parade of girls through his bed!

Brampton's Own is the story of a baseball player who has so far failed to make it to the big leagues. Returning home to the small town he left behind and to the people he once knew brings back memories of what could have been. Finding the love of his life getting ready to marry another, he tries to win her back but must choose between his life's calling and the love of his life. Both Alex Russell and Rose McIver gave fantastic performances in this film giving it an extra layer of emotion. Besides the main couple the rest of the cast was great and gave the film some very memorable and funny moments. I highly recommend this film to those who are fans of romantic comedies.

Trite excruciating Screen Writiing. Predictable characters with minimal development. First world woes all the way.

I thought this movie was very satisfying. Even though it focuses on a minor league baseball player returning to his hometown, I think anyone who has left their hometown for a long time for any reason will connect with this movie. While Dustin and I didn't leave our towns for even remotely similar reasons (I suck at baseball), that feeling of being an outsider in the place where you grew up is one I've felt a lot returning home. Credit to director/writer Michael Doneger for capturing that feeling perfectly. Great movie.

No spoilers here, but I thought it was going to be a sweet Rom-Com kind of thing. NAH. Not a 'happy' film.
