This film is about a boring washed up irrelevant figure in a boring irrelevant sports league - can you say "Dead on Arrival"?? Its an unfocused look at Japanese baseball that really doesn't explore below the surface of the Japanese baseball league. Clearly the fact the filmmakers were American and not Japanese means they could not really give real insight into the Japanese culture. The film just relies on Valentines vague comments on Japanese society. Its just a student film with cameras following around Bobby Valentine, who is way too boring to carry a film by himself. You probably wont even get past the first 10 minutes of the film on ESPN without flipping the channel. Better luck next time guys.
