Major League (Wild Thing Edition) [Blu-ray]

Product Description She’s beauti sm goal-orien and she just inherited the Cleveland Indians. Unfortunat she wants to move the franchise to Mi and a losing season is her only ticket to Florida. So she signs the wildest gang of screwballs that ever spit tobacco. They’re hands but they’re hopeless! Her catcher (Tom Berenger) is a washed-up womanizer who struck out in life. Her ace pitcher (Charlie Sheen) is a punked-out crazy who struck out with the law. And her third baseman (L.A. Law’s Corbin Bernsen) is more concerned fielding endorsements than grounders. Throw in a busload of other misfits and you’ve got yourself a hilarious line-up that’s destined for disaster! Or is it? Amazo A baseball edy and slob edy rolled int this one actually works as entertainm if not as a piece of cinematic mastery. James Gammon is the has-been manager hired to lead the last-place Cleveland Indians whose owner wants them to lose so she can sell them. But the team of has-beens and never-wases that he assembles (including Tom Beren Charlie Sh Corbin Bern and Wesley Snipes) develops a sense of pride and turns the team around. Ther plenty of rowdy humor abou r and whatever else they can make fun of. Look for Rene Russo (in her first film role) as Berenge romantic interest; Snipes also had his first showy role as Willie Mays Ha the tea base-stealing ace. --Marshall Fine Stills from Major League (Click for larger image)
