For my nineteenth Film Friday, I am going to choose a movie, that goes well with this week being Opening Week for the MLB. I am going to choose a movie that is extremely funny. I am going to choose 1989's Major League.
Major League follows the down and out Cleveland Indians of the MLB, as they have had a lot of losing seasons in a row. A show girl, named Rachel Phelps, purchases the team, with the intent on moving the team to Miami. She gets rid of all the somewhat decent young talent, and gets inexperienced rookies, and washed up old veterans to play for the team, hopefully to make attendance go down, and make the move to Miami as painless as possible.
But the team she hires, with all of their differing personalities, start winning, and drawing attendance, and then they beat the Yankees in a one-game playoff for the American League East. They don't move the team in the end, and there is a sequel that is also pretty funny.
This movie is just non-stop hilarity from beginning to end! I will link a few of the best moments from the movie, to show you how funny it is. I hope you all get to someday see this excellent movie!
Have you ever seen this movie before? Would you want to see this movie? If you have seen this movie, what is / are your favorite part(s)?
