I thought Major League: Back to the Minors would suck before seeing it, but I have to admit it's not bad.
By the way, what's with the ball? If not for it, the rating would've been higher although there should be more jokes.
What's particularly remarkable is how clean and wholesome the film is. That is, there are no gross-out jokes, sex innuendoes,
or ribald language. It's a relief, really.
The returning characters from either of the two parts make this one easy to watch, and I like how Scott Bakula
is being a good sport about it. I can't believe the filmmakers had Taka halo-transplanted on screen when he was
throwing the ball from the outfield.
All in all, Major League: Back to the Minors is an okay baseball movie.
