  • Sum it Up!
Summer just started, and Scotty Smalls doesn't have a friend for miles. A few of the local boys go down to the Sandlot to play some Baseball, this could be his chance. There's only one BIG problem, he can't even throw a baseball! But when the best ball player around, Benny Rodriguez helps Smalls out, he soon becomes one of the boys. It doesn't take long for Smalls to make a mess of things, and gets them into the biggest pickle they ever would be in!

  • Love, Like or Take a Hike?
I would give this a Love! It is a great story of true friendship. I would have taken out a few of the characters though. Like the Brothers, the tall nerdy kid and the quiet pitcher. They don't really stand out in the movie, and I think they should have been given better character roles. Other then that, this movie is great for all ages to enjoy.
