I received a copy of this movie to review. All opinions expressed are my own.
From the studio that brought you “Miracle” and “Remember the Titans,” comes the inspirational true story “Million Dollar Arm,” sliding home on Disney Blu-ray™, Digital HD, Disney Movies Anywhere, DVD and On-Demand Oct. 7, 2014. Set against the backdrop of America’s favorite pastime, this must-own baseball drama stars Jon Hamm (“Mad Men,” “The Town,” “Bridesmaids”) as a sports agent who sets out in search of the next great major league baseball pitcher and ends up discovering the true value of teamwork, commitment and what it means to be a family.
Cheered by audiences and critics alike, this “genuine crowd pleaser” (Pete Hammond, Movieline) delivers major league fun on Blu-ray and Digital HD with grand-slam high definition picture and sound that bring the excitement of the stadium experience right into viewers’ homes. The in-home release of “Million Dollar Arm” also steps up to bat with bases loaded with exciting bonus features, including an alternate ending, deleted scenes, outtakes, the making-of featurettes “Training Camp,” “Their Story,” “Million Dollar Music by A. R. Rahman,” and more! Bonus features available on Disney Movies Anywhere also include an exclusive never-before-seen deleted scene.
My Thoughts:
I wasn’t sure if I would like this movie or not but within about 5 minutes into the film, I was hooked. I am not a big sports fan but this is a really intriguing story that gives you an inside look at a true rags to riches story. The movie is truly touching and the actors are amazing! They all did such a great job in portraying their characters. Million Dollar Arm is now available on DVD, Blu-ray and Digital On Demand. I would highly recommend this movie, it’s perfect for family movie night.
