The true story of a womenÂ’s baseball team during the second world war is charming and heart-warming
Based on the real life Rockford Peaches, the film watches two sisters join the first female professional baseball league and struggle to help it succeed amidst prejudice and their own growing sibling rivalry.
Geena Davis, who joined the cast late as a replacement, gives a fine performance as both a player and actor. Overseeing the team is Tom Hanks as Jimmy Dugan, a one-time baseball hero turned to drink, but Hanks brings his usual charm and likeability to the role.
