Well-produced experiment in difficult book adaptation. Frustrating to those who actually know something about sabermetrics or the economics of baseball.

Outstanding cast and a decent idea. Probably hit the ceiling for its premise.

Strange, predictable, and ultimately disappointing, despite the fact that I have a decent tolerance for bad Cage movies compared to many people. William Fichtner steals some scenes, and Amber Heard is fun to watch, so I guess that adds up to 30%.

Action-packed ridiculousness. I bet the director and producer very much wish that the 1982 movie was never made, because it gave people the wrong impression compared to the Robert Howard original character.

Tense and engaging. Portrays a simplistic, absolutist morality typical of war movies. Which is to say that it is much more of a fantasy than the biography it purports to be.

Weak.

The cinematography is impressive, as is Spall’s array of gutturals, but the story holds little interest.

Cheap horror movie driven by illogical choices and lack of communication.

Slightly interesting documentary with neat time-lapse shots.

90 minutes of fatuous superficiality that one woman found funny.
