Angels – Engel gibt es wirklich (1994)

Angels – Engel gibt es wirklich: Directed by William Dear. With Danny Glover, Brenda Fricker, Tony Danza, Christopher Lloyd. When a boy prays for a chance to have a family if the California Angels win the pennant, angels are assigned to make that possible.

“I enjoy movies like this for their spirit, no pun intended. Its a decent, clean movie about a baseball team thatu0026#39;s falling behind, and a young fan wishes for them to win, since his deadbeat dad said that was the only way heu0026#39;d come back for him. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe spirit shines through in two ways: A funny cast with Danny Glover and a young Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and the heavenly herald Al, taking the dynamic form of Christopher Lloyd. Its an energetic movie. It gets you smiling, and really involves you in the sport. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTherein lies my gripe. the one thing that kinda bugs me is these sports movies that kind of turn you into an unexpecting fan for the team. Thereu0026#39;s absolutely nothing wrong with that. I just find it odd that I should come away from the movie thinking the Angels are a strong, cool team, when really my base loyalty, such as it is, lies with the Toronto Blue Jays. Itu0026#39;s interesting, really. If itu0026#39;s just a movie about an underdog kids team, then its okay.”
