Skip it. The Bad News Bears is a flawed comedy that can't quite decide if it wants to be heartwarming or crude—and lands somewhere in the middle of both. With a 5.8 IMDb and mixed critical reception, there are plenty of better feel-good sports movies to scratch that itch tonight.

Plot

Morris Buttermaker is a burned-out minor league baseball player who loves to drink and can't keep his hands to himself. His long-suffering lawyer arranges for him to manage a local Little League team, and Buttermaker soon finds himself the head of a rag-tag group of misfit players. Through unconventional team-building exercises and his offbeat coaching style, Buttermaker helps his hapless Bears prepare to meet their rivals, the Yankees.
