Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Surprisingly, improbably, The Bad News Bears is the year's funniest movie.
– Jay Cocks,
TIME Magazine,
3 Aug 2008
fresh:
Michael Ritchie keeps his dead-end cynicism in check and produces a genuinely funny comedy about a Little League team managed by a lovably drunken Walter Matthau.
– Dave Kehr,
Chicago Reader,
14 Mar 2007
fresh:
An extremely funny adult-child comedy film.
– Variety Staff,
Variety,
14 Mar 2007
fresh:
[Ritchie] keeps the sentimentality in check most of the time and obtains first-rate performers from his miniature cast all of the time.
– Vincent Canby,

9 May 2005
fresh:
[Ritchie] directs scenes for comedy even in the face of his disturbing material and that makes the movie all the more effective; sometimes we laugh, and sometimes we can't, and the movie's working best when we're silent.
