Bad News Bears


Hollywood remakes yet another underdog sports movie. The Bad News Bears are a kiddie baseball team, consisting of the usual bunch of misfits. Their new coach has been bribed to take them on, and he has issues of his own, including a love of the bottle and a foul mouth. But you know how this is going to end... the fun is in the journey rather than the destination.
