Major League II Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
ShangLuda Admirable film.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
cjstaples Well, it's got some amusing parts. However, much of the movie is painfully reusing story points and gags from the first movie. Some interesting characters from the first movie are either missing (Russo, Snipes) or mailing it in (Bernsen, Whitton). Story lines involving the changes to major characters seem forced and generally don't work well. Add to that a general lack of character empathy, and you have a movie which shouldn't be enjoyable. That said, it's watchable, with the same general flavor as the original, but be prepared to roll your eyes occasionally (okay, more than occasionally) at the soulless, generally lazy rework this movie is.
John McDevitt I don't know why there's so many negative reviews for this film when I think it's just as good as the original and in some respects, even better. Major League II is a logical progression from the original with the team losing their focus and enjoying the spoils of fame. A lot of what happens is this film happened to the 2008 Philadelphia Phillies after they won the World Series. This movie is blasted for predictable, clichéd writing when there was just as much in the first one. At least this movie doesn't have the maudlin Randy Newman songs and dreadful romance between Tom Berenger and Rene Russo. It makes sense to have Charlie Sheen be the focus this time as his story is more interesting than Tom Berenger as the focus in the original. The new characters are all worthwhile and interesting, especially David Keith as the formidable Parkman and Randy Quaid as the irate fan who won't go away. There were enough changes in this film to make it a little different but still keep it like the original. And who doesn't get excited when you hear Wild Thing at the end when Rick Vaughan has even more at stake this time to strike someone out? Don't believe all the negativity regarding this film. It's a very enjoyable, worthwhile sequel that I feel is criminally underpraised while the original may be a tad overcelebrated.
Shadow_Fish And I mean really stupid humor. By no means does this realistically portray baseball, nor does it make any sense at all in real life. It's just stupidly funny. In movies like this, I personally don't really care how good the acting is or how corny the plot is (cheesy romance, ridiculous comebacks, etc) so long as it remains interesting. Yes, most people would know what's going to happen from the beginning. It's what happens when getting there that's funny. While not a must-see movie, if you like comedy and you don't have much else to do, I would recommend watching it. If you prefer witty humor or more winding plots (a la Seinfeld) or developed characters, this is definitely not good for you. This might be even better for baseball fans. A very nice movie to unwind with.Disclaimer: I have not seen the first one. I highly suspect that I would be annoyed by this one if I was a big fan of the first one before watching this.
Brenton Burkett (FreedomRockTampa) I've probably seen this movie 15-20 times by now, and I know many of the lines word-for-word, and when they appear. Why have I watched this movie so many times, you ask? Because it was just that great. The first one was gold, but this movie was pure platinum. I thought the opening game was done to perfection, with the Indians losing to the Chicago White Sox. Well, except for the fact that Pedro Cerrano was already out for stepping out of the baseline before he was tagged by the outfielder, but that's a little inconsistency that only the baseball knowledgeable would catch. The losing highlights were priceless, thanks in huge part to the commentary of Harry Doyle, portrayed by Bob Uecker. Then the movie actually kept its consistency when the Indians started winning, and I believe it was great all the way to the end. Jack Parkman was the best possible antagonist this movie could have asked for, and despite the ending being a little obvious before it happened, I still enjoy it every time I see it. I don't know why many IMDb users have rated it so low, because this film deserves so much more. Too bad the third movie in this trilogy was a tank job, because if not, it would have been the greatest trilogy ever made. I strongly recommend this movie to the highest degree.
