One Hit from Home

Alrighty... So I was on Netflix field looking for an inspiring baseball movie and came upon "One Hit From Home" as I watching I began to be confused because the corny acting.. I thought maybe it was a joke and I need to just let it play out. 30 minutes into the movie...more corny acting. All the actors seemed like amateurs...it felt very awkward. The production and camera work was pretty spot on. Got some great shots. Sound track was ehhh okay I guess. All the actors were pretty terrible, felt like something I could produce.. I hate to be harsh on a movie but I wasted my time watching half of it and this is my honest review. Thanks for reading.

A little corny but a strong baseball themed faith-based message that is still worth watching in 2022 and beyond.

Different storylines intersect throughout the movie to keep the viewer engaged. Weaving in Bible verses is also a huge plus in our crumbling world of deceit and wickedness.

This movie is worth watching if you or someone you know is struggling with depression, regrets, alcoholism, drug use, unfulfilled dreams, and/or regrets.

Once you are over the level of acting, the movie grows on you and makes you smile along the way to have faith in others.

I watched this movie on Pureflix this weeks.

Good story to this movie, though it has been done before. The only thing making this movie a 4 instead of 8 is the acting of Jimmy Easton character (David Aaron Stone). If this movie had big names in it and better acting it would be a blockbuster! The actor playing the up and coming baseball star did a fantastic job. The ending of the movie was really well built up and I enjoyed the story of it. Having said all of that I am a big fan of the sports feel good movies! I watched it with my son who is 12 and he very enjoyed it. It's one of the few movies that you can watch without pointless swearing. I don't mind swearing in movies, in some movies it really is needed. What I don't like is when they do it just to try and get the count up!

Script has no flow. Piano music is annoying and rest of musical soundtrack does not fit many scenes. How many times do you have to star a line with "Hey"

Wonderful, feel-good family picture with a lot of good heart and great sport. I like its message, that its Christian and current. Some sweet shots and awesome tunes. Friday Night Lights meets The Blind Side. Shows us that having a relationship with God, throughout the toughest moments in your life, that there is light at the end of the tunnel. I particularly enjoyed the guy who played the current baseball star, the young blonde kid. Solid, well-developed character. His subtlety in portraying 'real' truly shines. Like to see that promising actor in more pictures. Inspirational and great film overall. I'd love to see another by these guys. -R
