Based on a true story of Jim Morris, a thirty-five year high school baseball coach, who retired from baseball because of a shoulder injury, who is persuaded to try out for a major league organisation...

Premiere - ...A sweet, engaging, truth-based celebration of America's favorite pastime....THE ROOKIE will feel like a home run..., Total Film - ...This gently played story of an ordinary second chance is actually quite a treat..., Sight and Sound - ...[Quaid] brings an appealing humility to his role..., USA Today - ...The movie keeps its eye on the ball....[The filmmakers] touch the heart without being sticky..., Variety - ...Smoothly directed....Schwartzman's attractive color lensing is splendid....Quaid's effortlessly compelling and engagingly earnest performance keeps the pic grounded in down-to-earth reality..., Rolling Stone - ...John Lee Hancock's heartfelt movie scores a solid hit..., New York Times - ...Unabashedly lyrical and beautifully photographed....Its stately pace and appreciation of the austere grandeur of the Texas landscape and the eerie beauty of night baseball contribute to its aura of modern American folk tale..., Los Angeles Times - ...[The filmmakers have] given THE ROOKIE a lovely, relaxed feeling that makes us happy to be in this film's company...
Additional Information
Every evening, Jim Morris (Dennis Quaid) is out practicing pitching. His minor league career ended with a shoulder injury twelve years ago. Now, Jim coaches a struggling high school team. When he tries to motivate them, they challenge him--if they reach the play offs, he must try out for the majors. The team starts to win, and makes the play offs. Not realizing how strong his arm has become, Jim is apprehensive as he sets off for the try outs with his son and baby daughter. The coaches recognize him, but think he has brought a young prospect. Late in the day, as he's changing a diaper, Jim is called. When he throws his first pitch, he surprises the coaches--and himself.<BR>Director John Lee Hancock, director of photography John Schwartzman, and composer Carter Burwell have made a glowing movie based on the true story of Jim Morris, investing it with a touch of myth. Dennis Quaid is convincing as the pitcher. His scenes with Brian Cox, playing his father, bristle with unresolved anger. The great Australian actress Rachel Griffiths shows her extraordinary chameleon-like ability--as Jim's tough-minded wife, she captures perfectly a woman who has to deal with life's practicalities and with her husband's dreams.
