Title: What Might Have Been
Review: Roger Ebert said, "Rarely does a movie start high and go downhill so fast." The first 30 minutes is wise, witty, amusingly world-weary and wry. The Mickey Mantle/Lou Gehrig scene is priceless. The remainder of the movie is maddening, mediocre, meaningless and maudlin. In addition, the baseball scenes are poorly done. It's a shame because the movie could have been an excellent comedy, but as part satire, part psycho-drama and part Rocky, it fails.
