Chapman and Maclain Way’s energetic telling of one of baseball’s great, unheralded stories is as much about independent spirit as it is about the game. When Portland, Oregon, lost its longtime minor-league affiliate, Bing Russell—who briefly played ball professionally before enjoying a successful Hollywood acting career—bought the territory and formed a single-A team to operate outside the confines of major-league baseball. When they took the field in 1973, the Mavericks—the only independent team in America—started with two strikes against them. What did Deputy Clem from Bonanza know about baseball? Or Portland, for that matter? The only thing uniting his players, recruited at open tryouts, was that no other team wanted them. Skeptics agreed that it could never work.
But Bing understood a ballplayer’s dreams, and he understood an audience. His quirky, unkempt castoffs won games, and they won fans, shattering minor-league attendance records. Their spirit was contagious, and during their short reign, the Mavericks—a restaurant owner turned manager, left-handed catcher, and blackballed pitcher among them—brought independence back to baseball and embodied what it was all about: the love of the game.

剧本、台词、节奏、配乐、表演有一样在线吗?
卧槽!东木牛逼!都这岁数了还自导自演发新片!我爱东木!一万年!
东木依旧讲了一个我愿意看下去的故事，一个重复自己的故事，但这次，讲的不好。
《廊桥遗梦》中的东木老爷子确确实实有其独特的男人魅力，但本片中还不断有女人倒贴就多少有些他想展现自己不服老的意味了。
缓慢如水，波澜惊起却又迅速翻涌而过，只留下墨西哥的黄沙和挤进酒馆缝隙的阳光。
英雄迟暮，互相救赎，最后拥抱真爱，剧情不是很新鲜，感觉看的是情怀
东木大爷的电影已经不能用正常电影的评判标准去看了
老爷子演技不错 剧情节奏太拖沓了 不如预期的好看
听倔驴讲电影解说完的，生命结束前总要和什么和解~
一位老牛仔的非硬核公路片。无论东木爷爷拍什么，只要他还能拍，我就会一路追随。
影片三星，致敬老东木两星。很有些《完美的世界》和《老爷车》的影子，却更加平淡，但也更加乏善可陈。影片多少体现了耄耋之年的老东木的心境，刻意地回避和淡化了许多冲突。也祝愿东木长命百岁
老爷子的内心很柔软，所以一切的呈现都是偏温柔的童话的美好的，视觉上倒让那只活力的公鸡抢足了戏。
东木暮年，让人唏嘘。希望老爷子能好好享受生活。
够潦草，也够敷衍，估计东木的精力也的确无法保证影片的高质量了，自然规律无法避免。
这就是老爷车＋骡子。东木以九十岁高龄任然奋战在电影前线，虽然年纪大了，少了铮铮铁骨的男人气概和愤怒，开始卖弄温情，但骨子里还是典型的牛仔。这部也是如此，缺少波澜，冲突不够，戏剧张力缺乏，和他以往的几部作品比较，这部明显平庸了，但这个年纪情有可原，毕竟东木大叔看一部少一部吧。
现在看老爷子的自导自演就像再看一场平克的演唱会一样，无关作品本身，更多的是敬仰吧。片尾曲真迷人
东木老了，故事不再刚了，可是就为了最后车上那一段关于“硬汉被夸大”的对话，我再多一分情怀分
东木桑最新作品。德州牛仔版《菊次郎之夏》。一老一小外加一只名叫 Macho 的公鸡的公路片。
这部看得百感交集，哀叹老爷子的老去，更惊叹老爷子的一切。上一部他导和演的《骡子》，比这部要好看得很多，而之后的《理查德朱维尔的哀歌》更是让人跪服。不管老爷子是心有余而力不足还是刻意为之，我觉得都可以理解。毕竟这是你能看到的屈指可数的90岁以上高龄的导演和演员的作品了。好好珍惜吧，可以的话我希望老爷子能导和演到一百岁。
一顶牛仔帽（《镖客三部曲》）、一辆老福特（《老爷车》）、一段邂逅（《廊桥遗梦》）、一场骑马教学（《百万美元宝贝》）、一条送运之路（《骡子》）、一种近似父子的感情（《完美的世界》），一部很伊斯特伍德的电影。
