I have to say, i was not disappointed when i went to see dragonfly. i had waited for a year and a half for it to come out and the day it opened I was at the theatre. I took my seat with my husband next to me and we enjoyed it very much. Why do so many people go to the movies nowadays looking to criticize, rather than enjoy? I did not go to compare it with any other film. I did not go to see if Costner would fly or flop. which he didn't. I went because I knew that any movie with Costner, that showed a smidgen of sentimentality would be great. He does it so well. and he did not fail to make me sad and happy, as well as make me laugh. Whats wrong with sentiment? Why is the notion of a love so strong it has no boundries sentimental crap? It seems as if the whole world is full of cynics. I enjoy going to a movie and being moved. And Dragonfly gave me my moneys worth. Dont listen to the naysayers, this is a movie worth going to see. If you love the idea of love, as well as a nice eirie background to the story, you won't be disappointed

This has to be one of the best movies I have ever watched and watched and... well, you get the picture.It is a revealing account of relationships and feelings and trust. Set during one major league baseball game, a man relives the past five years of his life from the pitchers mound. He realizes, over what may be the course of a perfect game, that his life has been anything but perfect. That the really important things in life are slipping away from him.This movie is full of life, it's sweet. It draws you in and holds your interest. I think the movie was underrated because of the subject matter. A romantic baseball movie? but that's just the surface. This movie goes very deep. If you give it a chance you will see that the reality of the setting and the people are extremely captivating, as well as fun. I can't think of another movie that has made me feel so good and so satisfied at the end. If you like baseball you can't help but love this movie. It's full of the most realistic ball playing I have ever seen in a film.If you like a sweet romance that doesn't have to rely on sex and nudity to tell the story, well, this is it. This has to be my all time favorite movie. I own it on vhs as well as dvd. The spotlight on location is a wonderful feature on both versions. It gives a fun look at the making of aspects. It also shows you interview clips from the professional ball people who were involved in the making of the film. I urge anyone who just wants to relax, enjoy a good story and feel better for watching it, to get this movie .

I own this movie under a different title "REBEL". It's ok. A bit slow, but it does have a plot. It tells the story of a young man having to choose between his desire to be part of a social movement in the late sixties. Or the love of a country girl, a true "flower child" he meets on his way to Manhatten. I liked it because it shows Sly before he became so pretty
