I came into this movie with pretty high expectations, and it does not disappoint. I am a pretty big fan of Friends, so I naturally check out anything that Matt LeBlanc appears in. I was curious to see if Joey would be funny without his cohorts Ross and Chandler, but this chimpanzee Ed really fills in their comedic shoes. I found the chimpanzee to be really cute, charming, and funny, sort of like a primate version of Scooby-doo. The humor in this movie is witty for the most part and has some double meanings for the adults watching. The plot is slow in parts, but that seems to be a pattern in most baseball movies. Among baseball movies, I would rank it up there with Major League and The Sandlot. It's no Moneyball though. Glad I stumbled across this "diamond" in the rough. Good for a few yuks on an evening with not much else going on.
