Far more horrifying than Evil Dead, Sam Raimi's attempt at making a sports-oriented romance strikes out, forfeits and loses three times before its two hours and 10 minutes are up.

Kevin Costner is back starring in his third baseball movie, and after those two box office home runs, Mighty Kevin has struck out.

Here are two things that definitely don't go together: baseball and piano music.

Like Billy this movie is good on the field, but not so much once off it.

The baseball sequences are fabulous, not least because Costner looks and moves like a real player a rarity for actors in sports movies... But the love story, a five-year off-and-on affair, is little more than a sop to Costner's romantic faithful.

Every scene away from the ballpark is in foul territory.

For Love of the Game asks whether the same qualities that make an athlete a champion don't also destroy his happiness. The answer, unfortunately, is long-winded and redundant... But some of the baseball scenes are good.

Vanity is one thing, but Costner's act is beginning to feel like a particularly self-righteous -- and tiresome -- form of pathology. Someone should tell him that an actor's job is to disappear into his characters, not vice-versa.
May 08, 2014
On the field, Costner is consistent, but his exploration of Billy's romantic dilemma is superficial and often wooden.

For Love of the Game's earnestness seems itself like a desperate cry for attention.
May 08, 2014
This is no perfect -- or even half-perfect -- game. It's another movie where conventions are subbed for life lessons, where the emotions are cued by golden oldies and where the motivation (at least on the studio's part) isn't love of the game but money.

Those flashbacks will drive you nuts. As if baseball didn't drag on long enough, almost every inning or out of that Yankees game is punctuated by a memory.
