-
"Rookie isn’t a bad movie. It’s also not good."
-
"This is one of the silliest plots since Disney cast Gus the mule as the star place-kicker for a hapless football team."
-
"A wholly benevolent but banal baseball fantasy aimed at Little Leaguers with dreams of reaching big-time fields."
-
"The phrase 'by the numbers' was invented for the way Harper crafts this script."
